Adaptec 2010S - RAID Monitoring

[Michael Moss]

Hello everyone,
    My question is: What is the best way to monitor a RAID 1 (or any RAID level for that matter) array? I want to be able to check the status of the drives, without booting into the bios. Also, how do I handle the hot swap if that situation arises?

My relevant configuration information:
Adaptec 2010S Raid 1 with two Seagate 36GB Ultra 320 Drives
Supermicro 6023P-8R SuperServer
FreeBSD 4.9R

Thanks

-Michael
