Subject: Re: Temperature monitoring HighPoint RAID drives

Thanks, it works with this configuration:

[hddtemp_smartctl]
user root
env.drives sda_1 sda_2 sda_3 sda_4 sdb_5 sdb_6 sdb_7 sdb_8 sdc
env.type_sda_1 hpt,1/1
env.type_sda_2 hpt,1/2
env.type_sda_3 hpt,1/3
env.type_sda_4 hpt,1/4
env.type_sdb_5 hpt,1/5
env.type_sdb_6 hpt,1/6
env.type_sdb_7 hpt,1/7
env.type_sdb_8 hpt,1/8

We're using Munin to monitor our servers. I'm wondering if there's 
support for highpoint raid card in the hddtemp_smartctl plugin? This 
would be very useful.
    

The plugin doesn't know about types of harddisks, it knows about the
program smartctl.

http://smartmontools.sourceforge.net/man/smartctl.8.html

LINUX:
    Use the forms "/dev/hd[a-t]" for IDE/ATA devices, and "/dev/sd[a-z]"
    for SCSI devices. For SCSI Tape Drives and Changers with TapeAlert
    support use the devices "/dev/nst*" and "/dev/sg*". For SATA disks
    accessed with libata, use "/dev/sd[a-z]" and append "-d ata". For
    disks behind 3ware controllers you may need "/dev/sd[a-z]" or
--> "/dev/twe[0-9]" or "/dev/twa[0-9]": see details below. For
--> disks behind HighPoint RocketRAID controllers you may need
--> "/dev/sd[a-z]". More general paths (such as devfs ones) may also
    be specified.

So please check that you see devices for your harddisks at /dev/sd*. If
you do, please try smartctl manually like this:

# smartctl -A /dev/sdb
smartctl version 5.36 [i686-pc-linux-gnu] Copyright (C) 2002-6 Bruce Allen
Home page is http://smartmontools.sourceforge.net/

Current Drive Temperature:     38 C
Drive Trip Temperature:        65 C
Manufactured in week 41 of year 2004
Current start stop count:      330 times
Recommended maximum start stop count:  10000 times

(This is from an Adaptec 3200S SCSI RAID controller.)

If it works, you specify the devices like this in the plugin
configuration:

[hddtemp_smartctl]
env.drives sda sdb

HTH,
