We use SNMP to monitor hardware RAID arrays (of course, they must be IP based). If you're using certain 3ware controllers, you can also use smartd to monitor the member devices (see man smartctl). Or, if you're using mdadm (software RAID), set the following line in /etc/mdadm.conf
PROGRAM /usr/local/nagios/libexec/eventhandlers/md_monitor which alerts Nagios that your RAID array is degraded (see man mdadm). The above service will have to be configured as a passive check (can be set up to be a passive/active check using freshness_threshold and check_freshness). What kind of RAID do you want to monitor? e.g. software or hardware? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Brian A.
