RAID alarm in daily run output since 8.2

[danzg]

Since upgrading to 8.2, our daily run output includes:

Code:

Checking status of 3ware RAID controllers:
Alarms (most recent first):
+++ /var/log/3ware_raid_alarms.today    2012-08-23 03:01:00.000000000 -0400

+

Yet the file '/var/log/3ware_raid_alarms.today' is empty.

What does this mean?

Mine looks like that on my 8.0.4-p2 (x64) and I don't have a 3WARE RAID controller. You didn't say if you actually have that controller. Either way, "no alarms".

I have a 3ware controller but I do not have that file nor have I ever received an alarm from my 3ware controller since installing FreeNAS.

I have periodically received these phantom alarms since building my Freenas box v8.3 and I am still getting them on v9.1?
I don't have a 3ware controller installed. I assume they can be ignored??

Yes, it can be ignored. You can also change this line:

daily_status_3ware_raid_enable="YES"

in /conf/base/etc/periodic.conf to

daily_status_3ware_raid_enable="NO"

and reboot to disable the daily 3ware check completely.

Great info.
