HP P410 ADU (hpacucli) generates empty report

3

I'm trying to monitor hard drive's smart status. I've tried smartctl tools and HP's own hpacucli to generate ADU report. However, neither of them are useful. smartctl does not show values like Power On Hours or Hard drive temperature. ADU report shows them empty.

What's the right way to monitor hard drives with HP raid controller?

Smartctl: smartctl -a -d cciss,0 /dev/sg0

You're not supposed to use smartctl and the like directly with these controllers. The HP Smart Array controllers use a variety of techniques to determine drive and system health. S.M.A.R.T. is one of them, but not the ultimate determination. It makes to sense to take advantage of the purpose-built tools available.

So in your case, configure your hp-snmp-agents to send an email when there's an issue. On Linux, emails default to the root user and a message in the syslog, but configuring an alert destination can be handled in /opt/hp/hp-snmp-agents/cma.conf.

As for the hpacucli utility, running hpacucli ctrl all show config detail provides most of the relevant array health information.

for me working like this

 smartctl -d cciss,0 -a /dev/cciss/c0d0
