Hey, Paul: We use Nagios with Jefferson's great megactl tool to monitor all our RAID and drive statuses. But that's on Linux.
If you're using Windows, you can at least get some hardware status for inventory purposes using Dell's DSET tool: http://support.dell.com/dset/ I don't believe it will give you array status, but you'll get every piece of hardware information you could think of - including the drive model and size info you're looking for.

You can use megactl/megasasctl for this. That's pretty much what I wrote it for. http://megactl.sourceforge.net/ _______________________________________________ Linux-PowerEdge mailing list [email protected] https://lists.us.dell.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-poweredge Please read the FAQ at http://lists.us.dell.com/faq _______________________________________________ Linux-PowerEdge mailing list [email protected] https://lists.us.dell.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-poweredge Please read the FAQ at http://lists.us.dell.com/faq _______________________________________________ Linux-PowerEdge mailing list [email protected] https://lists.us.dell.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-poweredge Please read the FAQ at http://lists.us.dell.com/faq
