| | Checking for Hard Drive Errors Is there a way to check for media errors on drives when the server is using a RAID controller in a RAID 5 configuration using Powershell? The Raid card is a Dell Perc 4DI. I have about 100 servers to check and I what to automate the process. -- penguin |

| | Re: Checking for Hard Drive Errors Back in the days when I managed Dell servers, I installed the Dell OpenManage Server Administration tools (DOMSA). These had a console-based type access (DOS commands). PowerShell v1 won't provide all that much unless DOMSA has added something like WMI support as of late... I think you should check this: http://www.windowsnetworking.com/art...nRM-WinRS.html Assuming you have Windows Server 2008 servers with WinRM available.
