Utilities provided in this SSD :

1) Rev 1.01: RI Agent. 
   This runs as a daemon and interacts with the RIB Driver, 
   Health and  IDA Agents to send SNMP Traps to the Remote 
   Insight Board. Additional executable of RI Agent is  
   included which is compatible with Wellness driver v1.0
    
2) Rev 1.02: Health Agent. 
   This runs as a daemon and monitors the Correctable Memory 
   Errors, counts and informs the RI Agent to send an SNMP 
   Trap whenever a Correctable Memory Error occurs.  This agent
   interacts with Wellness driver and supports monitoring of 
   various server components and sends Mail Alert notification 
   whenever a status change is detected on any of the server 
   components. This feature will be available only if the Compaq 
   Wellness driver version 2.00 or above is installed in your 
   system.

Additional executable for Health Agent is included which is
compatible with Wellness driver version 1.0

3) Rev 1.01: IDA Agent. 
   This runs as a daemon and monitors the status of the Drive 
   Array configured on the server. It informs the RI Agent to 
   send an SNMP Trap in case there is any change in the status 
   of the logical, physical and spare drives. This agent interacts
   with IDA driver and SMART-2 driver and supports monitoring of
   drives connected to IDA or Compaq SMART-2 Array controller and 
   sends Mail Alert notification if a drive status change is 
   detected.

4) Rev 1.0: RIVIEW. 
   This is a curses based utility which allows the user to 
   monitor the Drive Array and Correctable Memory status on 
   the server.

5) Rev 1.0: RICONFIG. 
   This is a curses based utility which allows the user to 
   view and on-line configure the Remote Insight Board.

6) Rev 1.04: Compaq SMART-2 Configuration Display Utility
   On-line utility to display SMART-2 Array family of controller
   information for Logical drives. 

Run 'cpqs2' at Unix prompt. "cpqs2 -h" gives the available 
options for the utility.
