I decided to post my own storage monitoring plugin as I found no good alternative, hope you find it useful!

This plugin will monitor health & missing components of:
- Hardware RAID (supported RAID controllers: LSI, 3ware, Areca, Adaptec):
- Controller itself, virtual drives, drive enclosures, physical drives in the RAID setup via S.M.A.R.T. reallocated sectors (0x05) value
- Software RAID via mdadm tool (arrays and drives)
- ZFS pools
- It will also monitor all the drives (via smartctl) detected in non-RAID / non-ZFS (or mixed) enviroments.
For this plugin to work you need to download RAID controller utilities and place them in /opt directory.

You can download the tools from official website or from my github: https://github.com/realasmo/bash/tree/master/nagios-plugins/check-storage/hwraid_utils

Example output:

Sofware RAID only (drive /dev/sdb in array md0 reports 716 realloc sectors):

[root@strdev3 ~]# ./check-storage.sh

Sofware RAID only (array md127 reports 4 removed drives):

Hardware RAID (drive p0 reports ECC-ERROR):

[root@strdev2 ~]# ./check-storage.sh

Checks on unsupported RAID controller will be limited to drives & software arrays if present:

[root@strdev1 ~]# ./check-storage.sh

This plug-in provides so much useful information and to top it off, it works on main different RAID cards.

The output it provides helps me determine when it's time to replace a failing hard drive or when my software raid needs attention.

Highly recommended plug-in! Give this developer some feedback. Very well coded! Looking forward to more plugins from this developer.
