https://sourceforge.net/projects/tntnagiosplugin/Windows SNMP is really not all that useful in my experience. I have a feeling that Microsoft would like it to go away in favor of their proprietary MOM. What you may be able to use to get to hard disk failure information is WMI. In fact, I wrote a plugin that checks the SMART information (not RAID, though) on either one host, or all workstations in a domain (it will need appropriate permissions, which translates to either administrator access or the Local System account). You can find that plugin in my tnt_nagios_plugins project on SourceForge. I'll be happy to create a plugin to check the IBM raid controller as long as you can provide me with the needed documentation and either do the testing for me or give me access to a development server for testing.
