the Sunfire X4100 has a great tool that you can get to from BIOS called the configuration utility which allows you to set up Disk mirroring (RAID 1) before the OS sees it, which is great and it works a treat, however, we have a large datacentre across multiuple sites and I need to find out if there is a way remotely that I can check if a disk has failed and switched over to the mirror or indeed just to confirm the mirror is up and stable and everything is ok? ...obviously it is not feasible to visit each machine with a monitor and keyboard then reboot it, just to check if all is OK
I know IPMI tool is used to probe hardware on x86 boxes and maybe this is what I could use? but thats just a guess
Does anybody know how I can proactively monitor the mirroring situation of these boxes remotely? the Sun documentation for these boxes gives no indication of a command line utility to check this stuff
