Status of Raid1 drives in a HP Proliant Server
Working with an HP Proliant ML330 server with Raid1.
I have worked with Dell servers in the past and they have a utility that lets you check the status of both drives - i.e. are they running in a healthy state and fully mirrored.
Is there a utility or way to do that with a HP proliant server?

Also tried setting up the HP Array Configuration Utility - but that is just opening the browser (IE) and advising that the "page cannot be displayed".
I believe that has to do with your security settings...been a while for me since Ive seen it...Andyalder should be able to help you there...
In the case of this server, The ACU will only work if you have a SmartArray card installed.
The ACU, works as a webpage on the local host, some times the security settings of the system can block the page.
If you don't have any type of Smart Array card, then, there is no software to monitor the drives.

Thanks for the replies. I won't be able to get back to it for awhile, so I am splitting the points rather than let this hang open any longer.

Under the physical drive info, at the end of each drive section... it shows "Drive Error Log: No errors logged". Which sounds comforting.
However, at the very beginning of the report under Slot Summary It inidcates "SCSI Port 1 Drive ID 0 is not stamped for monitoring". Does this mean that the "no errors logged" message is because the drive monitoring is not turned on? If so, how do I resolve.
