There's a very good extension in deadcat for *nix systems, however the
windows counterpart (openmanage.cmd) is old and doesn't work with newer
revisions of OMSA (at least 5x).

I recently discovered a system that had a disk fail however the old
script did not detect the condition.  It used to be that a check on the
controller would detect problems with the array, however today you need
to do separate checks.

Trying to rewrite it, I'd figure I ask if anyone has made a new one
and/or ported the *nix version (bb-omsa-raid.sh).
There is a template (dell-poweredge) for devmon that should work fine with 
OMSA as long as you can get to the OMSA values via SNMP. I haven't tested it 
with anything but 7-gen and older running Linux, but it should work (assuming 
the MIB details are correct).
