Hey, guys ..
We just a shipment of Dells for our new systems, and I must say, they look
like swell machines.
However, I have a few questions google and quick browsing of the
documentation didn't solve.
On the 2950 I have installed the MegaCLI from lsi.com, and that works fine,
I can get all the data I care about from the RAID controller.
However, for the 860 I'm not quite sure what to in order to get data from
the RAID controller.
The utilities for the PERC 5 in the 2950 won't help, obviously, and I'm not
too familiar with the Dell managment tools yet.
So, the question is: How can I get interesting data from the SAS 5i RAID
controller in an 860 ?
I'm guessing OMSA is somehow involved, but I would very much like a simple
CLI tool for easy queries, kind of like the MegaCli for the PERC 5.
Thanks for your time
