experience with check_sasraid_megaraid for Dell PERC 4?

[jmoseley at corp.xanadoo.com]

I use that plugin on a number of Dell servers.  First, you've got to make
sure the RAID controller is either a MegaRAID or AACRAID controller.  More
than likely, it's the former.

The plugin itself is self explanatory - look at the help output.  What you
need is to download the Perc SNMP agent from Dell.  Ultimately, you'll
install the following RPM:

percsnmp-4.09-1.i386.rpm

which will install the percsnmpd daemon...

All you need to do at that point is apply the following line to your
/etc/snmp/snmpd.conf file:

# Dell MegaRAID data will be exported on port 161 by the main snmpd
pass .1.3.6.1.4.1.3582 /usr/sbin/percmain

Then fire up the percsnmpd daemon and restart snmpd.

Hi all.

We've got two dell servers with PERC4 controllers running CentOS that
nagios is monitoring quite nicely with the exception of the raid arrays.

Is there anyone that has experience with check_sasraid_megaraid as found
here:

http://www.nagiosexchange.org/cgi-bin/page.cgi?g=1474.html;d=1

Advice, an overview, or a recipe would be very helpful!

Thanks!

    Bo
