Hi Paul,
I usually use 'megaclisas-status' It works without OMSA and only
requires MegaCli or PercCLI.
More information here:

Tool available here (ElVerde's upstream is late on my latest
pullrequests):
https://github.com/ElCoyote27/hwraid/blob/master/wrapper-scripts/megaclisas-status
There's a --nagios argument that spits out nagios-compatible exit codes:
# megaclisas-status --nagios
RAID OK - Arrays: OK:2 Bad:0 - Disks: OK:2 Bad:0
I hope this helps,
Regards,
Vincent

I have just finished putting together a DNS server on a Dell PowerEdge
1950 with CentOS 7. I tried to installing OMSA multiple times and
could not get it to work. I got warnings about non-supporting
OS/Architecture when I tried to install through Dell's repo and
manually. I researched this issue in length and it seems that you
can't get any version of OSMA to work on the dell 1950 with Centos 7.
What I really want at this point is to monitor the RAID array health,
I would like to know if the disk is failing or has failed. At this
point I'm willing to give up OMSA and being able to do RAID tasks live
on the server. So what are other recommended ways to monitor the Raid
array? I have used smartctl and ipmitool to let limited info on the
disks but Im looking for something that will email/warn me when a disk
has failed.
We use Solarwinds for monitoring and I was thinking of using SNMP, but
I read you still need OMSA in order to have SolarWinds monitor your
server via SNMP, can someone confirm this? If this is not the case
what OIDS do I need to monitor and what should their status be? Also
do I need to download the mibs from dell and put them on the server? I
have never used the Mibs/snmp to monitor Dell servers always OMSA but
now I need another solution to monitor the array.
Perhaps someone can point me in the right direction and profile me
with some help/links on an alternative to OMSA, using either
SNMP/impitool/smartctl or something else that Im not aware of. Again
my main concern at this point is to be able to get warnings on failed
disk. If we can use our solarwinds via snmp that would be great but im
open to other suggestions.
BTW I read and tried all the hacks for OMSA 7.4.1 on CentOS and none
of them worked for me.
Thanks, Paul
