mdadm is the most awesome tool, if you're not already using it. Red Hat has a mdmonitor initscript that runs mdadm in monitor mode, so you can get emailed when raid events happen. See /etc/mdadm.conf on that distro. Debian calls the script /etc/init.d/mdadm and mdadm-raid. check /etc/default/mdadm on Debian boxes. -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
