Monitoring RAID

[axvers]

Hi support,

We want to find a recommended plugin for monitoring RAID.

I checked this: https://www.nagios.com/solutions/raid-c ... onitoring/

But there is no straightforward solution about setting up the monitoring.

All I found is a lot of plugin in nagios exchange.

Let's say, we have HP DL3800 , IBM HS22, SUN x6250..., how should I do to monitor these RAID on Nagios XI?

Hi @axvers,

I would recommend searching the Nagios Exchange based upon which type of raid controller/hardware is utilized by the specific server. For example, it looks like the HP DL3800 uses HP Smart Arrary and may work with thsi plugin:

Once you have identified a suitable plugin, then you can upload into Nagios XI and test it on your device. For detailed insturctions, please see the following guide:
