Thanks. We're in the process of acquiring a used Dell 1550 with a PERC3/DCL card. According to documentation, this controller is based on the AMI MegaRAID product and is supported by the amr(4) driver. With RAID controllers under ata(4), I can use atacontrol to query the RAID controller to retrieve the status of a RAID container. It'll tell me if it is degraded, ready, etc; however, an obvious way to do this with the amr(4) driver eludes me. Is anyone able to monitor the status of a RAID in the operating system for controllers using amr(4)? Thank you in advance and please reply off-list. -- Matt Barton Webexcellence PH: 317.423.3548 x22 TF: 800.808.6332 x22 FX: 317.423.8735 matt@webexc.com www.webexc.com
