  • MegaCliVDStatus - check the status of LSI RAID Controller Virtual Drive
  • MegaCliDiskSMARTStatus - check if disk returns a S.M.A.R.T alert

Custom configuration examples

#!/usr/bin/env ruby -w

require "servermonitor/mailq"

ServerMonitor::Mailq.configure do |config|
  config.path       = "/opt/zimbra/common/sbin/postqueue -p"
  config.grep       = "/bin/grep"
  config.exit_codes = false
end

ServerMonitor::Mailq.run

Configure MegaCliVDStatus script

Output VD (Virtual Drive) status to STDOUT

#!/usr/bin/env ruby -w

require "servermonitor/megacli_vd_status"

ServerMonitor::MegaCliVDStatus.configure do |config|
  config.megacli    = "/usr/sbin/megacli"
  config.grep       = "/bin/grep"
  config.exit_codes = false
end

ServerMonitor::MegaCliVDStatus.run

Send VD (Virtual Drive) status to email

#!/usr/bin/env ruby -w

require "servermonitor/megacli_vd_status"
