Article Summary

In a situation where you're utilising an LSI based RAID card, you should be able to utilise the below commands as an example to obtain data from the SMART Information on the Hard Drives.
In some cases, you may actually need to use MegaCLI in order to find out the Drive IDs, otherwise, they would load in standard 0, 1, 2, 3 order.

An example command to obtain the device ID's is below.

# /opt/MegaRAID/MegaCli/MegaCli64 -PdList -A0 | grep 'Device Id'

Device Id: 8

Device Id: 9

./MegaCli64 -PdList -A0 | grep 'Inquiry\|state\|Device Id'
