How can I monitor the status of the hard disks and the RAIDs of an HP Proliant server using Ubuntu 12.04. In Ubuntu 10.04 I could use the cciss-vol-status to query the RAID status periodically but cciss-vol0-status doesn't work on 12.04 anymore. In 12.04 there are no /proc/driver/cciss or /dev/cciss directories.

How to deal with raid drives then Installating Ubuntu to a HP Proliant server Hardware is a brand new HP Proliant DL380 G6 with four SAS hard drives at 146 GB each. I want to run RAID5 or similar with one spare disk. I have a ProLiant DL360 G6. I want(ed) to install Ubuntu. My business critical application will require 64-bit mode.

I should add that my primary box is a laptop running 64 bit Ubuntu. Our HP Proliant ML150 is configured as RAID in the BIOS, and created a 'Logical drive' (using two 250GB HD) as RAID 1+0. The procedure seems to be Ok. However, when installing the OS (Ubuntu 10.1. Video driver for HP DL380 G6 for Ubuntu 14.04. Ask Question. HP ProLiant ML350 G6 driver problems.

Grrr... Ubuntu. :)
What type of HP ProLiant server is this? (model and generation, please)
Your drive device will vary depending on your Smart Array controller. With the move from G5 to G6 servers, the HP RAID controller driver changed from the legacy CCISS driver to the new HPSA driver. With the newer driver, you won't see the CCISS block driver... Devices will be
/dev/sdX .
Regardless, your key to monitoring Smart Array RAID controllers is to install the HP Management Agents. At the very least, you'll want the
hpacucli command line utility. Ubuntu and Debian have always had less official support from HP than the Red Hat/SuSE. However, there is a Debian ProLiant Support Pack that includes agents and tools for Ubuntu/dpkg systems.
That' more of a comprehensive approach that can generate SNMP traps and nifty email alerts. In order to just get the RAID configuration and management software, pull the
hpacucli utility down from HP's repository.
You may need to also
apt-get install lib32gcc1 lib32stdc++6 libc6-i386 to meet 32-bit prerequisites.
From there, you can use some common ewwhiteewwhite
hpacucli commands to obtain RAID status. An easy example:

The steps as follows is what I did to get it working for Ubuntu 16.04.

You can also use repos as written here: http://sysadmin.te.ua/linux/hpraid-monitoring.html
This repo has almost all raid monitoring utils for all type of raids! Regards.

It seems like things have changed slightly. User410516's answer is roughly on target, although somewhat brief.
Hewlett Packard Enterprise repos are now managed here. For Ubuntu 16.04 I found I needed the 'Management Component Pack for ProLiant' which is described as 'Agent software for Ubuntu, Oracle and community distros'. HPE provide the add_repo.sh script to add their repos to your installation.
This script didn't register HPE's keys so following this instruction:
Running an
apt update the following new packages become available.
Hp Proliant Ml 150 G6
And we can
apt install hpssa hpacucli hpssacli hpssaducli .
We can see there's a failed drive there and we can get the details for replacement with:
