Array Diagnostic Utility

ADU is a Linux-based tool that collects information about array controllers and generates a list of detected problems. You can save this data to a file for analysis. In most cases, ADU provides sufficient information for troubleshooting procedures.

To obtain ADU, download the utility from the HP website (http://www.hp.com).
