We have a Megaraid 320-1 in a dual Opteron server, but we were wondering 
if there's any way to manage the array from inside the OS. 
Megamgr/dellmgr don't appear to work on 64-bit at all. We're currently 
using the driver version 2.00.3, since the new unified drivers don't 
even seem to have an equivalent to the /proc interface to see the 
array's status. Since the server is 800 miles away, it's a bit of a pain 
rebooting into the BIOS in order to check anything.

On a slightly different (and off-topic) note, would anyone like to take 
a guess at how a drive failure managed to corrupt our RAID 0+1 volume? 
Would it be a driver issue, or just the drive corrupting the data 
without noticing?

Thanks in advance,

Russ Garrett
