How do I manage a PowerVault remotely?
Howdy,
I have a client that has a PowerVault MD-something and they're getting some email alerts about a possible RAID problem. Is there an OpenManage type program I can install on a Windows server to then connect to the PV device and get information on the status of everything? Or is there an iDrac type thing in a PowerVault I can use? I've never used a PowerVault before so not sure how to get info on it.
Thanks!

A Powervault MD is managed with the help of the Dell MD Storage Manager which can be connect trough ethernet or inband.

I have also installed some command line stuff on my nagios monitoring box to pull information from various installations.
Regard,
