[TriLUG] HP sautil for Linux?

I've got an HP Storage Array control on a DL380 G3, and an attached RAID
shelf. Two drives failed simultaneously. This makes me sad.

:(

I can't get the controller to try and recover the logical drive because it's
waiting for an "Accept Media Exchange" command. As far as I can tell, the only
way on the planet to do this is with the sautil command.

No such beast exists on my CentOS 5 system. I installed all the available HP
packages for server and RAID management when I built the server. But
apparently this is a tool which wasn't in any of those packages.

And of course HP's website is useless as all it wants to do when I search for
sautil is give me hundreds of manuals. I'm not sure if they even have this
implemented for Linux.

ANyone know what I can do here? If I can't get sautil for Linux, is there a
way to do it with the hpacucli command??

Thanks!
