Package: mpt-status
Version: 1.2.0-7
Severity: normal

The mpt-status tool was installed on my Debian Lenny HP Proliant server after 
installation. It instantly began sending me an e-mail every two hours 
containing just:

> This is a RAID status update from mpt-statusd.  The mpt-status
> program reports that one of the RAIDs changed state:
> 
> 
> Report from /etc/init.d/mpt-statusd on [hostname]

Running the tool myself, I found the mptctl wasn't loaded into my kernel. After 
loading it, the tool asked me to run mpt-status -d to find my SCSI ID, because 
it couldn't find any disks. The two-hourly e-mail from mpt-status started 
telling me this too at this point. mpt-status -d subsequently checked 16 SCSI 
ID's, but couldn't find a disk.

This HP Proliant has a Compaq Smart Array 64xx which can be perfectly queried 
with array-info. mpt-statusd should either get support for it, or it should not 
send me those e-mails automatically, and maybe it shouldn't have been installed 
in the first place if it won't support my hardware.
