Ok, so there is the reason that check_openmanage doesn't display any
virtual disks. It relies on OMSA for the information, specifically
omreport when used in local mode.

Based on the issue at hand and your reports about OMSA 6.4 and PERC4
controllers on the linux poweredge list, it seems that the latest OMSA
has serious issues with 8th gen Dell servers.

PS. You may have noticed that the plugin doesn't issue an alert when
virtual disks are missing. The reason for this is that it's perfectly
legal and plausible for systems to have no virtual disks. This is the
downside of a plugin that both discovers the components and monitors
them at the same time. It can't give alerts on missing components unless
they should always be present in all servers. A notable exception is
controllers, since being unable to display controllers is a common OMSA
problem. check_openmanage will complain about missing controllers even
though controller-less systems are possible.
