3. Open check_3ware-raid.pl with notepad
4. Change:
my $tw_cli_path = '/usr/sbin/tw_cli';
to:
my $tw_cli_path = 'C:\CLI\tw_cli.exe';

5. Install strawberry perl on Windows.
6. Install NSCLient++ on Windows.


7. Go to the NSCLient++ installion directory (C:\\NSCLient++).
On nsclient.ini change/add the following:
