I just wanted to let everyone know that I resolved my issue of not being able to
manage my PERC 2/DC array from linux.  The dellmgr utility was the answer.  I
believe the megamgr utility would also have worked, but when I tried I had an extra
megaraid module loaded and didn't realize it until I installed dellmgr.  Now the
only thing I'm missing is snmp monitoring of this controller.  I would like to use
ZENOSS to monitor this controller.  Any ideas??

by the way to Jim Hall, just for curiosity sake, the battery on my PERC DC/2
controller is surprisingly good, 40 cycles and still kicking.  I have never looked
at this controller that hard, is this a battery that is changeable(for future
reference) and what should I expect if it no longer takes a charge.
