determine hardware raid

[Terry Zink]

If you know the model of the raid card, many hardware raid card manufacturers have console apps that let you query the card locally.

Example with adaptec it's adaptec storage manager and the console ap is in /usr/StorMan/arcconf

So am I right in thinking that the -only- way to do this results in
server downtime? I know how to get to a sever's RAID configurations.
Looks like dmidecode wont be able to help either.

Thanks for the reply.
