Just a guess but I'm thinking that either the firmware version on the raid 
controller is not high enough, or the version of the driver that you are 
using is not high enough. OMSA has minimum requirements on both of these 
and will report 'degraded' if either of them is not at a high enough 
version.

        Subject:        Perc4i / 1850 / Centos 5.2 - Raid 1 degraded but 
OK


I just installed Centos 5.2 / OMSA 5.5.0 on a Dell 1850 with Perc4i.
The 2 internal drives are Raid 1,  "Omreport storage controller"
reports "degraded" but the vdisks and pdisks are all "OK". Is this
normal? Did I forget to go into the BIOS and set something to make the
controller rebuild automatically?

Thanks
