Tool to find drives in alarm off a H220 controller

My group recently removed the Raid controllers we had and are now using H220 SAS Controllers. We put in these in a DL360 G8 that has a D6000 disk enclosure attached to the new SAS controllers. We can not find a tool that will locate drives in alarm in the D6000. hpssacli/ssacli seem to only work with RAID controllers. SSACLI does not see the SAS cards or the anything in the d6000.

 

Does anyone know of a tool that will see the 70 drives we have in the D6000 connected through the SAS controllers? Is there an update of ssacli that does this or a more likely a new software tool?

 

Thanks

Hello 

The H220 is a not a Smart HBA .HPE Smart Storage Administrator is used to manage and configure Smart Array COntroller and Smart HBA controllers .Please check the HPE SSA user guide to find the list of controllers supported 

https://support.hpe.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docId=c03909334

H220 cannot be managed or monitored  using the HPE SSA utility as its not a Smart Device .

Drive failure or any alerts from Disks in D6000 connected to H220 will be triggered in Operating system .The funtion you are looking for is a smart funtion where the controller triggers the Alerts about disk errors and Alerts ,its only avaialble in Smart Array controllers or Smart HBA .
