Is there a way to monitor the Compaq Smart Array RAID controllers and > disks attached to them from within FBSD? > Hi David, I don't know of any online-monitoring, i.e. a utility that monitors the smartarray controllers/disks on an ongoing basis. However I know for sure that any smartarray-related messages (e.g. you pull one of the disks configured in a RAID1 or have a drive failure) end up in your syslog. From there you can periodically run grep over the syslog, send mail-messages etc. to notify you of any smartarray event. HTH -ewald
