RAID 1 – How to monitor it?
Hello guys, its me again!
We need to monitor with pandora one server with 2 disks in RAID 1 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_RAID_levels).
The idea is to know with the both disks are running ok or not (one ok, other fail and vice-versa)
Is that possibile with Pandora? we’ll use some Linux OS
Thanks!
Best regards!

Which model are the servers? DELL, HP, Fujistu Siemens?
You can do it using SNMP OIDs.
HPÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â 1.3.6.1.4.1.232.3.1.3.0Â (this return a number: 2=ok, 3=degradate, 4=failure)
DELLÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â 1.3.6.1.4.1.674.10893.1.20.130.4.1.4.1 (3=ok, if is diferent, something is wrong)
Fujitsu Siemens        1.3.6.1.4.1.231.2.10.2.11.2.1.0 (This OID indicates the Global state, not only RAID disk failure. 1=OK, 2=Degradate,3=Error, 4= Failure)
You have to install provideer administrative tools (DELL Open Manager, HP insight Manager …) Look for them in the official web page.
Good luck

I doing by SW Raid1 on Debian 6.0
My solution!
# Module for RAID1
module_begin
module_name hds_raid1
module_type generic_data
module_exec mdadm –detail /dev/md0 | grep “Active Devices” | cut -d: -f2 | sed ‘s/ //’
module_description Numero de dispositivos em Raid1
module_endI have 2 disks in Raid1, if the value is different of 2 = PROBLEM!
