The module loads and the disks are accessible no problem, but the 3dm monitoring utility runs for about 30 seconds before the processes just disappear. Nothing in messages.
I tried updating to the latest firmware but it made no difference. Has anyone gotten the 3dm utility working on centos4? Is this a 2.6 thing?

Try downloading the 3DM2 from the 9000 series -- yes, for your 7000 series. ;->

Thanks Bryan. I tried that and now the /usr/sbin/3dm2 process and its children stay running fine. Only... the web interface doesnt work. Its bound to the socket, and accepts TCP connections... but doesn't respond to HTTP requests. I tried this both on localhost with lynx and remotely with firefox (having set RemoteAccess 1 and restarted).
/var/log/messages shows nothing. /var/log/3w-aenlog.txt exists and shows a chunk of html that looks like what the webserver should be responding with.
Here's my /etc/3dm2/3dm2.conf
Port 888 EmailEnable 1 EmailSender root EmailServer mail-relay.mycomain.net EmailRecipient systems@mydomain.net EmailSeverity 2 ROpwd twOmwmsK8lKk2 ADMINpwd twOmwmsK8lKk2 RemoteAccess 1 Language 0 Logger 0 Refresh 5 BGRate 3333333333333333 MsgPath /etc/3dm2/msg Help /usr/local/doc/3dm2 OEM 0 AutoLogout 30
Am I missing something?

Doh! Yeah, forgot to mention a benefit of 3DM2 is the use of HTTP-SSL. [ I even forgot to put https:// in my prior email ]

Interesting new development. Hitting the "Send Test Message" button in the interface causes 3dm2 to dissapear and no email is sent. strace'ing the process shows a SIGKILL.

Oh my, even better. If you pull a disk, and it goes to send the actual warning email, it crashes then too.

That's a known problem. I had it, solved it, and I'll be damned if I can remember the fix now. Search 3ware's support site.

Good catch! That explains why I've never seen it either. I always set the mail server to 127.0.0.1 (and force myself to always setup a valid MTA on every server).
But still, you'd figure 3Ware would at least default to the local server via 127.0.0.1.

Yep, 3DM2 supports everything 7000 and newer, even though they only make it available under the 9000 downloads.

By default, 3DM[2] install with _local_only_ access. And it uses a bit of Javascript, so you need to run a full browser.
Use an Xserver or, in the worst case, run a XVNC session.
Here's my /etc/3dm2/3dm2.conf ... Port 888 ... RemoteAccess 1
http://localhost:888 _should_ work. Are you running a firewall? Or TCP Wrappers?
TCP Wrappers is what got me.
