Operating Systems Linux Red Hat Separate HDD test using RAID controller
# 8  
Old 06-07-2015
Thanks everyone for all the help, I ended up using Ultimate Boot CD which has smartmontools 6.4 and GSmartControl on it. It is able to run SMART tests on each HDD individually (It took me a while to realize that the seperate HDDs are /dev/sg# and not /dev/sd#). I didn't have any luck though as they were all OK.

I have aarconf on RedHat but other than using:
Code:
/usr/StorMan/arcconf getconfig 1

To see that all my HDDs are present and presumably working well I didn't find any way to test that the RAID controller itself is working properly.
Do you know of any such tests?

SYNOPSIS

     To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines in your kernel configuration file:

	   device pci
	   device scbus
	   device iir

     Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the following line in loader.conf(5):

DESCRIPTION

     The iir driver claims to interface with the Intel integrated RAID controller cards, and all versions of the ICP Vortex controllers (including
     FC).

HARDWARE

     Controllers supported by the iir driver include:

     o	 Intel RAID Controller SRCMR
     o	 Intel Server RAID Controller U3-l (SRCU31a)
     o	 Intel Server RAID Controller U3-1L (SRCU31La)
     o	 Intel Server RAID Controller U3-2 (SRCU32)

     o	 Intel RAID Controller SRCU21 (discontinued)
     o	 Intel RAID Controller SRCU31 (older revision, not compatible)
     o	 Intel RAID Controller SRCU31L (older revision, not compatible)

     The SRCU31 and SRCU31L can be updated via a firmware update available from Intel.
