MegaCLI is a command line tool used to manage storage controllers from LSI and Avago. It allows administrators to access, configure and monitor various aspects of their storage environment including RAID controllers, drives, enclosures and more. It is compatible with Windows, Linux, Mac OS X and Solaris.
Netdata auto discovers hundreds of services, and for those it doesn’t turning on manual discovery is a one line configuration. For more information on configuring Netdata for MegaCLI monitoring please read the collector documentation.
Netdata has a public demo space (no login required) where you can explore different monitoring use-cases and get a feel for Netdata.
Adapter State is a metric that measures the status of the MegaCLI adapter. It is important to monitor this metric because it can tell us if the adapter is functioning properly or not. Normal values for this metric are either “Optimal” or “Failed”, and any other value usually indicates an issue with the adapter.
Physical Drives Media Errors is a metric that measures the number of errors encountered by the drives connected to the MegaCLI adapter. It is important to monitor this metric as it can tell us if there are any issues with the drives connected to the adapter. Normal values for this metric should be zero, and any positive values indicate an issue with the drives.
Physical Drives Predictive Failures is a metric that measures the number of predictive failures detected by the drives connected to the MegaCLI adapter. It is important to monitor this metric as it can tell us if there are any issues with the drives connected to the adapter. Normal values for this metric should be zero, and any positive values indicate an issue with the drives.
Battery Relative State of Charge is a metric that measures the amount of charge remaining in the battery connected to the MegaCLI adapter. It is important to monitor this metric as it can tell us if the battery is functioning properly or not. Normal values for this metric range from 0-100, and any values outside of this range indicate an issue with the battery.
Battery Cycle Count is a metric that measures the number of cycles the battery connected to the MegaCLI adapter has gone through. It is important to monitor this metric as it can tell us if the battery is functioning properly or not. Normal values for this metric range from 0-1000, and any values outside of this range indicate an issue with the battery.
