Does anyone have linux tools for monitoring temperature, disk and netraid 1m card for lp1000r?

NetRaid is based on LSI Logic Megaraid, and better known by that name in the Linux world.

I think the megaraid driver (included in most recent Linux distributions) reports some status information in the /proc pseudo-filesystem. I don't recall the exact path and can't check at the moment, but it is probably somewhere under /proc/scsi or /proc/driver.

HP doesn't seem to offer any Linux utilities for lp1000r, but Dell has some Megaraid tools for Linux available:

Thanks for the useful link. I was looking at /proc/scsi/scsi folder on my system and this was the details I received:


Attached devices:
Host: scsi2 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00
Vendor: MegaRAID Model: LD0 RAID5 69462R Rev: H
Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02
Host: scsi2 Channel: 04 Id: 11 Lun: 00
Vendor: SDR Model: GEM318 Rev: 0
Type: Processor ANSI SCSI revision: 02


Not very confident that I can download any of the Dell management Utilities to monitor the state with the above. Any ideas?

There is a hard disk temperature utility called hddtemp (http://www.guzu.net/linux/hddtemp.php).

javelin:/var/log # hddtemp /dev/hda
/dev/hda: IC35L060AVV207-0: 35°C

Look at GKRELLM too - its quite nifty....
