Hi Lance,

perhaps you should have a look at the documentation of your raid arrays. 
If you want to monitor them, you need a way to thier status data. Try to 
find a way to the data and then you can look for a plugin, which is 
capable to go this way (sorry for my bad english). If your raid arrays 
are monitorable via snmp (look at their docus), check_snmp could be a 
solution for you.

Bye, Stephan
