I have emailed them and asked if they had anything to monitor the RAID array in a FreeBSD environment and they replied telling me that "they are not sure if Free BSD 5.4 will work with the Global array Manager or not " I did not come out and ask them to write me a driver. The Global Array Manager software that they have works with SCO Unix, Linux and Solaris...not to mention windoze. I was thinking about the and I think I may be able to get away with a script to parse syslog OR maybe I can configure syslog to send an email if I get a disk failure message sent to syslogd. Does anyone do something like this? -Bob Ted Mittelstaedt wrote: > What does Mylex say? > > It might occur to some people that hardware companies have no incentive > to write FreeBSD drivers if the people who use their products NEVER > ASK FOR THEM! > > Just a thought. > > Ted > > >>-----Original Message----- >>From: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org >>[mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org]On Behalf Of Bob Ababurko >>Sent: Monday, October 10, 2005 1:23 PM >>To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org >>Subject: RAID monitoring >> >> >>Hello all- >> >>I am looking for a way to monitor my Mylex acceleraid 250 controller >>that I am running under FreeBSD 5.4.
