If hpasm is available for Solaris, then devmon can monitor almost everything 
there is to be monitored, including raid controller status (physical drives, 
logical drives, spares) via SNMP.

We use hpasm and devmon to monitor our ProLiant's running Red Hat Enterprise

If hpasm is available, and you use devmon, please discuss further on the 
devmon mailing list.
