I just setup a server using CentOS 7.5.1804, and I've selected a Marvell SATA RAID controller (Marvell 88SE9230), running two SATA drives at RAID 1.
The storage system appears to be functioning as expected, but I don't know how to interrogate the RAID status, trigger rebuilds, or monitor the underlying drive status. Some Googling suggests that smartctl is the proper interface, but I'm having poor results so far. Hoping you can guide me.
Code: Select all
# smartctl -a /dev/sdb -T permissive
smartctl 6.5 2016-05-07 r4318 [x86_64-linux-3.10.0-862.9.1.el7.x86_64] (local build)
