Hi,

I'm running Open SUSE 10.2 on my HighPoint RocketRAID 1820A RAID system. Suse 10.2 can automatically detect the 1820a RAID and map the disks as below
/dev/mapper/hpt45x_chdghbigcd_part3
181G 4.5G 168G 3% /
udev 1.5G 116K 1.5G 1% /dev
/dev/mapper/hpt45x_chdghbigcd_part1
198M 16M 173M 9% /boot


Now, I want to monitor the RAID, in case the RAID broken or one of the disk failed, it can send email to me.

can I use mdadm to do the job?

Regards
louis
