Monitor RAID status on debian etch

[Nicolas Delanos]

Hello Michal,

Thank you very much. I think it's ok now.

oneohtwo:~# omreport storage vdisk
List of Virtual Disks in the System

Controller PERC 6/i Integrated (Embedded)
ID                  : 0
Status              : Ok
Name                : Virtual Disk 0
State               : Ready
Progress            : Not Applicable
Layout              : RAID-5
Size                : 408.38 GB (438489317376 bytes)
Device Name         : /dev/sda
Type                : SAS
Read Policy         : No Read Ahead
Write Policy        : Write Back
Cache Policy        : Not Applicable
Stripe Element Size : 64 KB
Disk Cache Policy   : Disabled

When there is a problem, "Status              : Ok" change to  
"Status              : Failure" ?

Thanks in advance.

Nicolas
