This is an initial public release of my software for inspecting Dell PERC (and possibly other LSI megaraid) adapter configuration and status. It speaks directly to the adapters via ioctl(2) and can query both adapter health, and, using passthrough SCSI commands, health of attached disks, similar to smartctl. You can also initiate on-disk self-test operations on your drives. Included are scripts to send a nightly email report of adapter and disk health and configuration. This is a beta release after some fairly major revisions to add support for SAS (PERC5) adapters. I've been using the software for over a year to monitor the health of hundreds of disks, but there are no doubt some bugs as a result of the recent modifications. Take a look at the project documentation and screenshots if you're interested, and please submit reports for any bugs you find. Developers are welcome to assist in extending functionality.
This is the first public release of megactl.
