Not sure on the IBM but you can write a program that queries the compaq insight agents with SNMP or schedule an insight manager task to do it.

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I'm administering some Netfinity and Proliant dl380 servers, each one with a hardware RAID5 array.<br />
We want to automatize the task of querying the status of each array.<br />
Is there any tool from IBM or Compaq, or something that enables me to query it from a script and get the Raid status?<br />
Each server comes with a &quot;Raid administrator&quot; software that can be configured to send alerts, but we want to query the status instead of waiting for an alert.<br />
<br />
Thanks in advance.<br />

How to query the status of RAID members

Computer data storage, often called storage or memory, is a technology consisting of computer components and recording media used to retain digital data. In addition to local storage devices like CD and DVD readers, hard drives and flash drives, solid state drives can hold enormous amounts of data in a very small device. Cloud services and other new forms of remote storage also add to the capacity of devices and their ability to access more data without building additional data storage into a device.
