Detecting Harddrive Errors
I am looking for some tips or suggestions in how to do the following.
1) From a Solaris server, I run the command iostat -En and receive output that is similiar to the following which shows your disks along with the cdrom/dvdrom:
c0t2d0 Soft Errors: 0 Hard Errors: 0 Transport Errors: 0
Model: Maxtor 6E040L0 Revision: NAR61590 Serial No: E1FECWNE
Size: 41.11GB <41110142976 bytes>
Media Error: 0 Device Not Ready: 0 No Device: 0 Recoverable: 0
Illegal Request: 0
c0t0d0 Soft Errors: 0 Hard Errors: 0 Transport Errors: 0
Model: WDC WD200BB-75DE Revision: 05.03E05 Serial No: WD-WMAFD1500835
Size: 20.00GB <20000000000 bytes>
Media Error: 0 Device Not Ready: 0 No Device: 0 Recoverable: 0
Illegal Request: 0
c0t1d0 Soft Errors: 2 Hard Errors: 0 Transport Errors: 1
Vendor: PIONEER Product: 12X DVD-ROM Revision: 1.16 Serial No:
Size: 0.00GB <0 bytes>
Media Error: 0 Device Not Ready: 0 No Device: 0 Recoverable: 0
Illegal Request: 2 Predictive Failure Analysis: 0
2) My question is this, how can I parse out the DVD-ROM drive and then with the two internal disks, I want to check the: "Soft Errors", "Hard Errors" and "Transport Error" fields for any number other than zero which would indicate a need for a fsck of the drive, drive replacement, etc.
3) If possible, I would also want to add the funtionality of excluding any SAN attached storage which may or may not be present as I am not concerned with the SAN drives.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

DIAGNOSTICS
Error: Errors when closing Qmail mailer $program: $!
The Qmail mail transfer agent did start, but was not able to handle the message for some specific reason.
Warning: Message has no destination
It was not possible to figure-out where the message is intended to go to.
Error: Package $package does not implement $method.
Fatal error: the specific package (or one of its superclasses) does not implement this method where it should. This message means that
some other related classes do implement this method however the class at hand does not. Probably you should investigate this and
probably inform the author of the package.
Warning: Resent group does not specify a destination
The message which is sent is the result of a bounce (for instance created with Mail::Message::bounce()), and therefore starts with a
"Received" header field. With the "bounce", the new destination(s) of the message are given, which should be included as "Resent-To",
"Resent-Cc", and "Resent-Bcc".
The "To", "Cc", and "Bcc" header information is only used if no "Received" was found. That seems to be the best explanation of the
RFC.
As alternative, you may also specify the "to" option to some of the senders (for instance Mail::Transport::SMTP::send(to) to overrule
any information found in the message itself about the destination.
