[Nagios-users] Need help with Nagios, PERC, and likely false warning

2008-04-16 Thread Scott R. Ehrlich
I have a Dell PE2950 with PERC 5/i.  The server suffered a failed disk 
under RAID 0.  I obtained a replacement disk, rebuilt the system from the 
ground up (new logical volumes within the controller, new OS install) and 
the system is happy now.

I installed nagios on a low-end PC (CentOS 5), and obtained nrpe from Nagios, 
installed a couple OpenManage plugins - Report and Storage. Both nagios plugins 
report the PERC as status Warning - PERC 5/i is Non-Critical/Degraded.

The report and storage nagios plugins, along with a few other Dell plugins, all 
show the RAID volumes and disks as perfectly healthy.

Are the Warnings a reflection of the OpenManage files obtained via yum, the 
nagios plugins (both plugins show the same issue), and/or does the RAID 
controller actually have a flag I missed, that still needs to be cleared, 
though the RAID was rebuilt?

Thanks for any insights/help.

Scott

None of the above, probably.  Most likely you're using a newer version of
OpenManage than was current when your controller firmware/drivers were new.
You could either downgrade to an older version of OpenManage, or better yet
upgrade the firmware/drivers to the latest version and clear the error.
