Bug#539266: mpt-statusd is logging "detected non-optimal RAID status", eventhough raid status is OPTIMAL

[Philippe Lafoucriere]

Package: mpt-status
Version: 1.2.0-4.2
Severity: minor

Hi,

mpt-statusd keeps sending to syslog "detected non-optimal RAID status", but my RAID array is OPTIMAL :

$ sudo mpt-status -i 4
ioc0 vol_id 4 type IM, 2 phy, 698 GB, state OPTIMAL, flags ENABLEDioc0 phy 1 scsi_id 6 ATA Hitachi HDS72107 AB0A, 698 GB, state ONLINE, flags NONE
ioc0 phy 0 scsi_id 5 ATA Hitachi HDS72107 AB0A, 698 GB, state ONLINE, flags NONE

and in syslog :
Jul 30 11:11:48 ulithi mpt-statusd: detected non-optimal RAID status

I've added the right ID in /etc/default/mpt-statusd (which should be created by default by the way)

If I output the line "mpt-status -i $ID" to syslog, I get nothing (no text).

I've modified the init.d script, and for an unknow reason, I have to explicitly tell the path to mpt-status :

--- mpt-statusd 2009-07-30 11:35:21.000000000 +0200
+++ /etc/init.d/mpt-statusd 2009-07-30 11:14:09.000000000 +0200

- if (mpt-status -i $ID) |grep -q 'state OPTIMAL' ; then
+ if (/usr/sbin/mpt-status -i $ID) |grep -q 'state OPTIMAL' ; then
BADRAID=false
else
BADRAID=true
- logger -t mpt-statusd "detected non-optimal RAID status"
+ OUTPUT=$(/usr/sbin/mpt-status -i $ID)
+ logger -t mpt-statusd "detected non-optimal RAID status ($OUTPUT)"
fi
STATUSCHANGE=false
if [ true = "$BADRAID" ] ; then

and now I don't get any error in syslog.

Thanks
Philippe
