Hallo everyone,

thank you all for your fast and helpful response. Unfortunately the problem persists.
Is there a way to filter out the (in my opinion faulty) SAS card?

Regards,
Timo

Storage components are tightly interconnected, so from the plugin side
your only option is to not check storage at all:

check_openmanage --no-storage

But I still believe that this is a software problem, i.e. in OMSA.

Hello Trond,

the check_openmanage -no-storage options works (surely without any physical disk... :( ).

I was on the phone with the Dell Pro Support. They told me that the MD3xxxx only schows the raid disk Information (not the physical disk informations) to external devices.
Also they told me that there is no way to filter out the SAS-Card in OMSA.

I have to live with "-no-storage" option...

Regards,
Timo

Hmm.. Ok, so this particular server doesn't have any storage other than
the SAS card (connected to the MD3xxx), which OMSA can't manage? If so,
that is exactly what the '--no-storage' option is for :)

You should use the '--no-storage' option if

1. The server has no storage, which is entirely possible; or
2. The only storage present is something that OMSA doesn't recognize
