I found MegaCli-8.07.14-1.noarch.rpm at the Broadcom site (as well as storcli-1.23.02-1.noarch.rpm and the more elaborate MegaRAID_Storage_Manager). MegaCli is now installed and seems to be working. I found an interesting script here: https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__calomel.org_megacli-5Flsi-5Fcommands.html=DwID-g=gRgGjJ3BkIsb5y6s49QqsA=gd8BzeSQcySVxr0gDWSEbN-P-pgDXkdyCtaMqdCgPPdW1cyL5RIpaIYrCn8C5x2A=TdZEcKc4bjRiGil-AXKWkLp2VtZJ4aSrib-AVBDGqOI=YLCgYLIUG-BNXw4jaKOeWmb2HZuLi-z-VxGLUDM3DeA= It looks like it will make life fairly convenient except my Supermicro case doesn't have an LED for each disk so I need to sort out somehow the correlation between a physical drive and the reported "Slot Number". I don't suppose there is any kind of standard or convention in how an SFF-8087 cable is labeled or oriented?
Re: LSI MegaRAID management
LSI got split up a few years back the SANS went to Netapp and the raids went to Broadcom you should be able to find the linux tools here https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.broadcom.com_support_download-2Dsearch_-3Fpg-3D-26pf-3D-26pn-3D-26pa-3D-26po-3D-26dk-3DMegaRAID-2B9266-2D4i=DwIFaQ=gRgGjJ3BkIsb5y6s49QqsA=gd8BzeSQcySVxr0gDWSEbN-P-pgDXkdyCtaMqdCgPPdW1cyL5RIpaIYrCn8C5x2A=uDeYY5jilEWNuLdEGycqx1u_71fgZyvcULsTNOTcKAM=Bsg1dGwheOxTr3yXGayYaQxGXJKE71J-UO1bF2iGUoI= As for monitoring you have a few options, the megaraid cli is a nice tool, storage manager has a nice GUI if i remember correctly, and for remote monitoring look at the SMIS provider. SMIS is an industry standard for storage monitoring that works very well, there are a number of tools and API's that support it too. the down side is the API isn't documented well for consumption by the general public I wrote some documentation about it for a perl implementation of a client some years back here https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__github.com_prmarino1_Lib-2DCIM-2DPerl_blob_master_LCP-3A-3AQuery.md=DwIFaQ=gRgGjJ3BkIsb5y6s49QqsA=gd8BzeSQcySVxr0gDWSEbN-P-pgDXkdyCtaMqdCgPPdW1cyL5RIpaIYrCn8C5x2A=uDeYY5jilEWNuLdEGycqx1u_71fgZyvcULsTNOTcKAM=i_aZX7GqrXEWbXaESR5LtyXPYd9Q0TO8Sh91mxMYFD4= the documentation on how the queries work should work for any WBEM/CIM client and for any subset including SMIS and WMI. when you get down to it CIM (the transport protocol for SMIS) is kind of like a sane version of SNMP where you can get just the raw data but you can also get the mib from the device you are querying.

Re: LSI MegaRAID management
LSI puts out an rpm, the one I've got laying around from an old install is MegaCli-8.01.06-1.i386.rpm Current version is either at your vendor's drivers page, or presumably from LSI's own website. I run the attached cronjob nightly to get an email report of the array's health: Checking RAID status on lepton.d.umn.edu Controller a0: LSI MegaRAID SAS 9280-16i4e No of Physical disks online : 6 Degraded : 0 Failed Disks : 0 -- Alec Habig University of Minnesota Duluth Dept. of Physics and Astronomy ha...@neutrino.d.umn.edu https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__neutrino.d.umn.edu_-7Ehabig_=DwIFAw=gRgGjJ3BkIsb5y6s49QqsA=gd8BzeSQcySVxr0gDWSEbN-P-pgDXkdyCtaMqdCgPPdW1cyL5RIpaIYrCn8C5x2A=HyUzo1cZ5rJfgEG6gRB-VkwQyw2SU4ItLpmGKJt0coU=y03GGtHkL3OIhqqltEKkMq9SXQz_hTXMYjC7F4USR90= megamon.sh Description: Bourne shell script
LSI MegaRAID management
I have a MegaRAID 9266-4i card with four 2TB drives configured as a RAID-5. $ lspci -vvv | grep -i raid 02:00.0 RAID bus controller: LSI Logic / Symbios Logic MegaRAID SAS 2208 [Thunderbolt] (rev 05) Subsystem: LSI Logic / Symbios Logic MegaRAID SAS 9266-4i Kernel driver in use: megaraid_sas Kernel modules: megaraid_sas $ yum list libstoragemgmt\* Installed Packages libstoragemgmt.x86_64 libstoragemgmt-megaraid-plugin.noarch libstoragemgmt-python.noarch libstoragemgmt-python-clibs.x86_64 Is there a way to monitor the health of the array from a running system?
