Thanks for your quick reply, Seth. I did look at this but it seems that it requires OpenManage to be installed on the monitored server. Is that right? That gives me some concern over performance - I've heard (but have no experience with) that OM is something of a resource hog - java based? Our servers are VM hosts for a variety of other things and I'm reluctant to add yet more load for the simple need to check that status of the RAID arrays.
I appreciate your insight.
