Hy *,
I just noticed that observium_agent returns a <<<md>>> section:
1.) Question: is there actual a way of monitoring the state of linux softraid devices in Observium, I just do not know? Documentation / google is quite silent about this question. :-)
2.) If no, how can this be implemented?
Idea #1: Introduce a “(red|yellow) Alarm” state even for Unix devices, as most common network devices have. So this technique can be also used for different kinds of alarms (Raid, Network, ECC, …)
a. Yellow Alarm: Raid degraded
b. Red Alarm: Raid broken :-)
Idea #2: Is this something, which can be implemented “outside Observium” (e.g. by some “geniuos” snmpd-configuration lines in snmpd.conf) and Observium just uses the normal “(yellow|red) Alarm” way, which is already implemented? Sorry, I am not an SNMP-Expert, so I cannot answer this for myself.

Is all of the required information returned in the md section?
It'd probably just take a bit of code to parse the output and inject the required entries into the status system.
