I've got a poweredge 2970 and as you may know its raid utility is a version of LSI MegaCLI. But raid status is not shown by ISPCONFIG3 - until now. the monitor page is located at /usr/local/ispconfig/server/lib/classes/monitor_tools.inc.php if you add this code: --snip-- /* * Check, if MegaCLI LSI RAID is enabled */ if (file_exists('/opt/MegaRAID/MegaCli/MegaCli64')) { /* * Fetch the output */ $data['output'] = shell_exec('/opt/MegaRAID/MegaCli/MegaCli64 -LDInfo -Lall -aALL'); /* * Then calc the state. */ $tmp = explode("\n", $data['output']); $state = 'ok'; $state = $this->_setState($state,$data['output']); } --snip--- RIGHT before the block containing 'Check if we have mpt-status installed' now you will find that checking raid status outputs useful (for us) information like: Adapter 0 -- Virtual Drive Information: Virtual Drive: 0 (Target Id: 0) Name :ServerHD RAID Level : Primary-6, Secondary-0, RAID Level Qualifier-3 Size : 1.817 TB Sector Size : 512 Parity Size : 930.5 GB State : Optimal Strip Size : 64 KB Number Of Drives : 6 Span Depth : 1 Default Cache Policy: WriteBack, ReadAheadNone, Direct, No Write Cache if Bad BBU Current Cache Policy: WriteBack, ReadAheadNone, Direct, No Write Cache if Bad BBU Default Access Policy: Read/Write Current Access Policy: Read/Write Disk Cache Policy : Disk's Default Encryption Type : None Is VD Cached: No and we see our Raid State is Optimal! Nothing to worry about. but - you ask - what if it goes Bad? Then it would say Degraded or Failed. here is a little script to email YOU when the unthinkable occurs: --snip-- #!/bin/bash /opt/MegaRAID/MegaCli/MegaCli64 -LDInfo -Lall -aALL > raidstate1.txt cat raidstate1.txt | grep "Optimal" > /dev/null if [[ $? -eq 1 ]]; then cat raidstate1.txt | mailx -s 'Degraded RAID on '$HOSTNAME youremail@com fi --snip-- just cron this every 10 minutes and you will get a warning when Optimal is NOT present in the output. enjoy! cdb.
