Any further information available on these management apps?

I have an application that runs on a system with an onboard LSI 53C1020A
with Integrated Mirroring firmware.  This controller can't be used
because of the lack of a management app able to query the state of the
two disk mirror and command a rebuild.

If a suitable managment app was available for either the LSI 53C1020A +
IME or LSI 53C1020A + MegaRAID SCSI 320-0 (Zero Channel RAID) this would
be a saving on the cost of an Adaptec 2110S which can be managed using
raidutil.

This is for FreeBSD 4.x.
