Reading about the heroic achievements of Neil to recover broken raids
for people it is obvious that before a RAID has problems good info needs
to be provided. Since usually that information is required after the
fact, I'm looking for a script that I could run periodically on my
computers that would collect all this info and send it someplace safe
off-site.

Is there a script that I could run from cron that would collect all the
needed info for a recovery of a broken raid and mail it off-site?

If there is nothing like that, then I can try writing it as long as I
could get the list of commands that would give me all the needed info.

Thanks,
K
