In our production environment we have a mix of [12][789]50s and use two
solutions to monitor RAID. The first one uses an old percsnmp package I found
on Dell's website that provides SNMP OIDs that we then check with our monitors.
The other method uses MegaCLI like this:
NUMDISKSONLINE=`/opt/MegaRAID/MegaCli/MegaCli -PDList -aALL |grep Online |wc
-l`
if [ $NUMDISKSONLINE -lt 2 ]
then
addmsg "I have one or more degraded disks in my RAID array" MSG
addexit 2 RET
fi
I prefer percsnmpd, but I use the MegaCLI on our [12]950s because the PERCs are
not compatible with percsnmpd for some reason.

Yes there is.
If you're using Nagios there are a few plugins which use the "megacli" package
which comes directly from LSI.
Of course you could just install that and write your own scripts utilizing
megacli but there are so many great plugins out there it would be a waste of
your time.
