Linux Software Raid Plugin Recommendation?

[Miah, W (Wadud)]

We use SNMP to monitor hardware RAID arrays (of course, they must be IP
based). If you're using certain 3ware controllers, you can also use
smartd to monitor the member devices (see man smartctl). Or, if you're
using mdadm (software RAID), set the following line in /etc/mdadm.conf

PROGRAM /usr/local/nagios/libexec/eventhandlers/md_monitor

which alerts Nagios that your RAID array is degraded (see man mdadm).
The above service will have to be configured as a passive check (can be
set up to be a passive/active check using freshness_threshold and
check_freshness). What kind of RAID do you want to monitor? e.g.
software or hardware?

RAID? LVM2, Soft-Raid, or Hardware?
