Need help with Nagios, PERC, and likely false warning

If I had to guess your driver or firmware is out of date.

Subject: Need help with Nagios, PERC, and likely false warning

I have a PE2950 with PERC 5/i.   The server suffered a failed disk under

RAID 0.  I obtained a replacement disk, rebuilt the system from the
ground 
up (new logical volumes within the controller, new OS install) and the 
system is happy now.

I installed nagios on a low-end PC (CentOS 5), and obtained nrpe from 
Nagios, installed a couple OpenManage plugins - Report and Storage. 
Both nagios plugins report the PERC as status Warning - PERC 5/i is 
Non-Critical/Degraded.

The report and storage nagios plugins, along with a few other Dell 
plugins, all show the RAID volumes and disks as perfectly healthy.

Are the Warnings a reflection of the OpenManage files obtained via yum, 
the nagios plugins (both plugins show the same issue), and/or does the 
RAID controller actually have a flag I missed, that still needs to be 
cleared, though the RAID was rebuilt?

Thanks for any insights/help.

Scott
