It shouldn't be this hard, but I can't figure out how to monitor the RAID status with the HPE Smart Array E208i-p SR Gen10, in a HP ProLiant DL360 Gen10 in Linux.
- I can't find a file in
/proc
or/sys
. arcconf
says:Controllers found: 0
.ssacli controller all show
says:Error: No controllers detected.
- Same for HP SSA CLI:
Error: No controllers detected.
Edit: it was a bit confusing because this server has two RAID controllers, but neither work so far, so the question is the same.
This is the lspci -v
output of the E208i-p:

Edit: on a slightly order server, with 'Hewlett-Packard Company Smart Array Gen9 Controllers (rev 01) / Hewlett-Packard Company P440', the hpssacli
tool does work.
I had the same issue with a P408i-a and an older version of ssacli (ssacli-2.60-19.0). I was able to resolve it by using a newer version of ssacli (ssacli-4.17-6.0).
For the Red Hat users out there: Install the HP repo (keyfiles are available on the HP repo page); then you can use your package manager to install:
