AW: Automatic notification of failure in softRAID array?

Hi Peter
Look for the new admin tool mdadm. It has the Option --monitor wich is able to do this job.

Betreff: Automatic notification of failure in softRAID array?


Hello,

I am running a server here with Red Hat 7.1, 2.4.18 kernel, and softRAID set
up on all but the root filesystem.  This server is meant to sit on a remote
site where we won't be able to monitor it all the time, So I would like it
to notify me if one of the disks in the RAID-1 array fails.  Is there any
integrated way of doing this, or will I need to hack together a script to
periodically parse the contents of /proc/mdstat and act accordingly?

Please reply to this address, as I am not a member of the mailing list and I
can not regularly check the archives.

Thanks for any assistance you may be able to render.
