     73There are several switches which are interresting:
     74  * '''-H''': Only print lines which are not ok.[[BR]]If nothing is printer, everything is fine
     75  * '''-B''': Ignore batttery problems when running -H.[[BR]]In fact megasasctl can't define if your controller has a battery or not.[[BR]]If you don't have one, use this parameter.

     77=== 3.1.2. Periodic checks ===
     78
     79You can write your own script around megasasctl to check your adapter status health periodically.
     80However, I already did this for you. See megaraid-status below.

     85
     86'''megaraidsas-status''' is a wrapper script around megactl with periodics checks.
     87[[BR]]It is available in the packages repository too.
     88
     89[[BR]]The packages comes with a python wrapper around megasasctl and an initscript that '''periodic''' run this wrapper to '''check status'''.
     90[[BR]]It keeps a file with latest status and thus is able to detect RAID '''status changes and/or brokeness'''.
     91[[BR]]It will log a ligne to '''syslog''' when something failed and will send you a '''mail'''.
     92[[BR]]Until arrays are healthy again a '''reminder''' will be sent each 2 hours.
