I am looking for a list of the essential binaries/rpm's
needed to view the status of and build raid volumes within
the various Perc cards.
My servers are 2650's, 1850's, 2850's and soon to be
2950's. My controllers are 3/Di, 3/DC and 4/Di.
Installing anything that starts a daemon, inserts kernel
modules or in any way taints the OS install or startup
order will not be an option.
Is there a URL that identifies the software needed to
perform these real time functions on Dell Perc
controllers? Everything I have found on Dell.com suggests
installing management software that runs as a daemon.
I only need to manage the controller from the command line
and also be able to run a command to get a one time quick
status of the volume(s) health.
All of my servers are RHEL4 or CentOS4 on the latest
kernel.
Thanks,
Aaron
