Detect RAID hard drive failure on compaq/hp servers

[Emmanuel Lacour <elacour@easter-eggs.com>]

Hi everybody,

I would like to know if there is a way to get a message from the RAID
controller when a disk of a raid array (raid 5) fails. I wan't to send
something like a mail alert in this case so I need to know this with
another way than looking at the disk light ;-)

The server is a Compaq Proliant ML370 G3 (driver cciss)

Any help?
