Hi Nicola.

You will need to get mpt status working before,

1. apt-get get install mpt-status
2. load the module by modprobe mptctl
3. check if module is loaded lsmod | grep mpt

issue
mpt-status command
it will display the following

r...@hammerhead:~# mpt-status
open /dev/mptctl: No such file or directory
  Try: mknod /dev/mptctl c 10 220
Make sure mptctl is loaded into the kernel

r...@hammerhead:~# modprobe mptctl

r...@hammerhead:~# mpt-status
ioc0 vol_id 0 type IM, 2 phy, 278 GB, state OPTIMAL, flags ENABLED
ioc0 phy 1 scsi_id 9 SEAGATE  ST3300656SS      HS0A, 279 GB, state 
ONLINE, flags NONE
ioc0 phy 0 scsi_id 1 SEAGATE  ST3300656SS      HS0A, 279 GB, state 
ONLINE, flags NONE

Then follow the instructions from nagios exchange to get it monitored
