Release Notes mpt-status 1.2.0 (2006-mm-dd)
==============================
Codename: <unknown>

About
-----
The mpt-status software is a query tool to access the running configuration and
status of LSI SCSI HBAs. This is a heavily modified version of the original
mpt-status-1.0 tool written by Matt Braithwaite. mpt-status allows you to
monitor the health and status of your RAID setup.

Currently supported and tested HBAs are:

LSI 1030 SCSI RAID storage controller
LSI SAS1064 SCSI RAID storage controller

Since the tool is using the MPI (message passing interface) changes are high
that the basic information regarding RAID status will be available for all
LSI based controllers. Just give it a try and report back.


Requirements
------------
You should have mptbase and mptctl loaded or compiled into the kernel. If you
are to compile mpt-status by yourself, make sure you have the kernel source
installed, or else it will fail. This deficiency will hopefully be addressed
soon.
