Raid 5 Status

Post by rodz »

Hi i have LCD smartie running on a server with a raid 5 array, i was just wondering if it could display the status of the hard drive from Computer Managment. i dont know if this is a plug-in request or if i can just type some command that will bring it up.

also ive seen a post about external buttons wherre can i get the schamatic to wire this up thanx

You might be able to get the info you need from Windows Performance Monitor - any stats you can get with this (it's part of Windows) can be displayed by Smartie through the Perf plugin. This plugin can give you graphs and numeric/text stats such as memory/cpu load, disk and network stats. I guess it can give RAID info too but I've neven had a RAID setup...

As for buttons - forum search gives: http://forums.lcdsmartie.org/viewtopic.php?t=876
You'll need an LPT port on your motherboard (or on a PCI card). USB Printer adaptors don't work.
