MPT-STATUS(8) MPT-STATUS(8)
NAME
mpt-status - retrieve configuration and health status from LSI hardware RAID controllers
SYNOPSIS
mpt-status [ options ]
DESCRIPTION
The mpt-status software is a query tool to access the running configuration and status of
LSI SCSI HBAs. mpt-status allows you to monitor the health and status of your RAID setup.
OPTIONS
--autoload
This will try to automatically load the mptctl kernel module.
-u --controller <int>
Set the IOC unit (controller).
-h --help
Print some help information.
-n --newstyle
Use the new style output. This parameter was introduced to retain backwards compat-
ibility. If not set, you get the old style output. It is very likely that the out-
put of the newstyle format will change heavily in the future, so do not rely on it
when writing plugins for monitoring software, for example.
-i --set_id <int>
Set id of primary device (check README).
-p --probe_id
Use this to probe SCSI id's when not on id 0.
-q --quiet
Do not display any warnings.
-s --status_only
Only print the status information. This can be used for easy scripting
-v --verbose
Print verbose information, such as warnings
-V --version
Print version information
-d --debug [<int>]
Enable debugging and set level optionally. NOTE: This is not fully implemented
yet.
DIAGNOSTICS
The program's exit(2) status is meant to be interpreted as a bit mask. If everything went
well, zero is returned. If not (i.e. if for example an error or unknown condition is
detected), the bits of the return value shall be interpreted as:
Bit Value Meaning
-----------------------------------------------------------------
0 1 Abnormal condition / unknown error
1 2 A logical volume has failed
2 4 A logical volume is degraded
3 8 A logical volume is resyncing
4 16 At least one physical disk failed
5 32 At least one physical disk is in warning condition
REPORTING BUGS
Report bugs to your linux distribution or software vendor, if mpt-status was bundled on
your installation. If you have been compiling mpt-status from the vanilla sources and
experience problems, redirect them to preferably <ratz AT drugphish.ch> or <rnibali AT pyx.ch>.
BUGS
Besides design bugs, gross software engineering and missing features, this software is
considered pretty stable and can be used in production environments.
