Veeam Hardened Repository monitor HDD

Post by rai44 »

I have a question, is there a way to monitor the status of the disks if I apply the script in Ubuntu?
My idea was to configure swaks to send me an email every day.

Example: raid 1 for system, raid 10 for backups. Controlled by an LSI 9211, XFS file system.

Hello,
the answer is independent from Hardened Repository and applies to Linux in general.

One option is the SMART status as you mentioned above. But that only works if RAID controllers are in JBOD mode as far as I know. For RAID controllers in RAID mode, the OS cannot see the SMART because it looks like a single large disk vs. individual disks. In that case, there are RAID controller tools that allow to get that data. I did not use LSI since quite some time, but Google tells me, that storcli, megacli or lsiutil might work.

Best regards,
Hannes
