I have some servers where, for various reasons, I cannot install the Dell OMSA toolset.

Usually, I have hardware RAID configured for the disks (PERC). Also, most of my servers have an iDRAC configured (out-of-band management).

Is there a way to check the status (faulty, predicitve failure, healthy) of my servers' disks? I tried IPMI on one machine but it doesn't seem to give that information.

It should work within a script because the final goal is integration within Zabbix.

If your restriction is with installing any software, you are out of luck. If you just can't install 3rd party software, there's MegaCli. (Typically available with your operating system media/update repositories.) Dell has provided documentation.

You will likely need to parse and format the output to get the desired information ready for Zabbix.
