Can you use HostMon to use SNMP to monitor a RAID setup?

Post by clrlogic »

I've mainly used HostMon to monitor Connections, Services, and Drive space but I would also like to monitor when a drive in a RAID has gone bad and needs replaced. Can this be done with HostMon?

Well, this is question for manufacturer of this specific RAID array. Usually they provide SNMP agent that can be used for monitoring. However different manufacturers provide different MIB files, different counters...
I assume you should have necessary software, MIB files and the manual?
