I'm considering using HP Proliant DL360 and 380 G3 servers for an
high-reliability server project. As such I want to monitor at least two main
failure conditions: hard disk and power supply. The Smart Array driver
(ciss) works great in logging a drive failure. But I have found no kernel or
port tools to discover a failure of a redundant supply. HP has released the
hpasm and cpqhealth softwares for Linux, but nothing for FreeBSD. :(

Anybody have an experience or advice in this area?
