Good Day,

During a firmware upgrade we had issues with the upgrade of the RAID component. Is there a way to tell whether RAID is being used on this server? to determine whether the upgrade of the RAID component is needed altogether.

Regards,
Dan
 
When you say firmware upgrade to you mean software upgrade or a flash of a hardware component and what are you using for a raid controller (hardware or software)?

If you are using mdadm for a software raid, the two commands that I know of that will get you the status are:
1 - cat /proc/mdstat
2 - mdadm --detail /dev/md0 (md0 or your raid md device as appropriate)
