RAID monitoring with mpt-status (LSI SAS Fusion card)
Jan 23rd 2013, 16:20

I'm working on a new server. The server contains a Dell PERC 6/i which is driven nicely by the mptsas kernel module. OpenSuSE 12.2 64-bit installed easily on the hardware RAID-1 array.

I need a good monitor for the array that will notify when there is a problem.

The "mtp-status" command (which is in the opensuse repositories) works nicely for getting the status. I see that the Debian folks have an mpt-statusd daemon that is a shell script that sleeps for an interval, checks status via mpt-status and if if there is an issue sends notifications via email. The mpt-statusd script that I pulled from a Debian source is not suitable for running on opensuse as written. Has anyone already "SuSE-fied" mpt-statusd? I hate to do the work if it is available somewhere that I have not already looked into.
