5.9 SmartArrayController

Use this Knowledge Script to monitor the operational status of storage controllers, such as HP Smart Array RAID controllers, on computers running Linux. This script raises an event if a controller is in a state other than one of the states that you specify to be an operational state. This script can also report events based on error conditions that occur when the software is not properly installed, configured, or running.

For information about smart array controller object properties, see Section 5.1.7, SmartArrayController Properties.

If you are monitoring Dell equipment, this Knowledge Script requires OMSA components on the computer you are monitoring. You can install these components using the srvadmin-all meta package.

If you are monitoring HP equipment, this Knowledge Script requires the HP Array Configuration Utility CLI for Linux and HP System Health Application and Command Line Utilities for Linux installed on the computer you are monitoring.
