Monitoring DL120G5 Sata Raid Harddisks
I have this DL120G5 running RHEL 5.1. It has an onboard Sata Raid controller that I use to create a raid one set of two disks. I installed the HP drivers and the HP Storage Manager but the Storage manager doesn't see the Sata controller and I supect that it just doesn't support this kind of controller.
But I really would like to know the status of my harddisks and preferably get an email when things go wrong. How do I realize such a sollution?
Kind regards
WB

If you want S.M.A.R.T. monitoring then use smartmontools.

Re: Monitoring DL120G5 Sata Raid Harddisks
And looking at the smartd.conf file I see that an email will be sent to root if something is wrong.
Is there some way I can test if this is working?

Re: Monitoring DL120G5 Sata Raid Harddisks
How did you specify reporting in the config file?
By default it only sends mail once for each problem type. You can alter this using "-M type" option.

You need to remove the first line of the smartd.conf
