The PSP does allow for the option to automatically send SNMP traps should a hardware failure occur. However, I don't know the configuration specifics.

No personal experience of Red Hat on on this server.

Worth exploring HP Integrated Lights Out (iLO) and Insight Manager.

An overview is in this document for the Server but it doesn't make it clear (to me) how much is free and whether it works with Red Hat. I'd speak to HP.
