How to detect a Raid failure with Linux ?
I've a DL380 running Linux Centos. The OS is installed on disks mirrored with a controller RAID0+1.
How can I setup the OS in order that when the mirror is broken an alarm raises (snmp, Email, logs...) ?
I can't see anything with the ILO and in the logs ?
Thanks for your help

I think the HP agents send SNMP traps, but you will need some other tool to handle those traps and do something useful.

This is a mail I received recently:
Trap-ID=3034
Logical Drive Status Change: Slot 0, Drive: 1.
Status is now Rebuilding.

Re: How to detect a Raid failure with Linux ?
But I also would second Dirk in his preference for Linux's own SW RAID.
We have been running all our Linux servers with this for several years now and never have experienced any data loss owe to some RAID failure.
I think the Linux MD layer is ultra stable,
very easy to set up and administer.
The same goes for the mdadm monitor mode
which lets you most easily plug in your own custom alerting or event handling scripts (I for instance have it send passive check results to my Nagios server, which always has notified me in time when there needed a disk to be replaced).
On RHEL you are already provided with an mdmonitor init script.
In /etc/mdadm.conf all what's left is to set PROGRAM to point to your custom event handler.
e.g.
# grep ^PROGRAM /etc/mdadm.conf
PROGRAM /usr/local/sbin/mdevent.pl
