Accessing Storage Information using OMSA

Hello,

I just installed OMSA 5.2 on PE2950 III with Centos 5.1. Installation was
really easily done with two commands. 

Am now having a first look at the webinterface and it looks great. Lots of
useful information and stuff, but ok, I assume you know the software, no need
to chat about it :)

Here comes my problem:

In the navigation I have the point System->Storage. But this particular section
is empty. I somehow expected to find informations about the controller and the
SAS drives, but nothing.

According to lspci its got an PERC 6/i Raid Controller equipped with 4 drives
in a RAID5 setup: 

01:00.0 RAID bus controller: LSI Logic / Symbios Logic MegaRAID SAS 1078 (rev 04)
        Subsystem: Dell PERC 6/i Integrated RAID Controller


So, how to get OMSA to display these informations and make it offer links for
changing the configuration of the controller without rebooting the server?
