==== HP Servers: hwraidinfo and hwraidstatus in Linux ====

   #!/bin/sh
   SLOTLIST=$(hpacucli ctrl all show | \
   grep Slot | sed -e 's/^.*Slot //g' -e 's/ .*$//g')
   for i in $SLOTLIST
   do
    echo
    hpacucli ctrl slot=$i show | grep -v "^$"
    echo
    hpacucli ctrl slot=$i ld all show | grep -v "^$"
    hpacucli ctrl slot=$i pd all show | grep -v "^$"
   done
   echo

And here is the script equivalent of hwraidstatus:

   #!/bin/sh
   SLOTLIST=$(hpacucli ctrl all show | \
   grep Slot | sed -e 's/^.*Slot //g' -e 's/ .*$//g')
   for i in $SLOTLIST
   do
    echo
    hpacucli ctrl slot=$i show status | grep -v "^$"
    echo
    hpacucli ctrl slot=$i ld all show status | grep -v "^$"
    hpacucli ctrl slot=$i pd all show status | grep -v "^$"
   done
   echo
