    HP ProLiant DL380 G4 Hardware monitoring software needed

    Hey! I'm using an HP ProLiant DL380 G4 server for a school project. The server is using 4, 146GB Ultra320 SCSI hard drives (currently configurated for RAID10), and 2, 36GB Ultra320 SCSI (RAID1) ones.
    My problem is that I can't find software that will alert me if there is a drive failure in one of the RAID arrays. I tried HP's website, but most (if not all) of the pages with downloads for this server, have been removed. I know that intel have their rapid storage RAID utility, but I doubt that it will work with the "Smart Array 6i Ultra320" controller, that's what this server has.
    I don't mean to rush you but I need help with this as soon as possible!
    Thanks!
    P.S. I tried a few utilities, but none of them worked. However, I can monitor drive failure and recovery, from within the pre-boot RAID configuration utility. Also, this server has 2 power supplies, so a piece of software that can detect a PSU failure is also welcome!

    Forgot to mention that it's running Windows server 2003 with the default drivers (with the exception of the Ethernet ones), since the latest ones are no longer available on HP's website.

      UPDATE: I used HP ACU to solve my problem.
      The new problem is that I don't have a driver for the iLO management interface driver, and I need it to get HP SMH to work, so that I can view the PSU status.
      Here is the hardware ID PCI\VEN_0E11&DEV_B204&SUBSYS_B2060E11&REV_01
      Thanks!

        I feel like I'm talking to myself :P
        Anyway, I found the driver! In case someone needs it, here's the link:
        ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp43001-43500/cp009468.exe
        Though, I still can't get HP SMH to work, it just says no items.
