I think that's not narrowing it down much...
from memory, don't bother correcting me if I'm wrong, the "DL" name
goes back to P3 class systems and is still used today for both
Xeon and AMD chips... i.e., completely unspecific question. So,
we'll take it as the completely general:

"sysctl hw" for things like fans, PSs, etc.
bioctl(8) for supported disk arrays.
Stick 'em in /etc/daily.local, and read your daily output reports.
it's amazing what kind of info is in many modern (and not so
modern) machines.

I'm kinda wondering about that lmenv1.fan0, looks a little slow.
Kinda makes me wish I took my own advice here so I'd have some
history to look back at. :)
bioctl -hi sd0 tells me this:
Volume Status Size Device
ami0 0 Online 33.7G sd0 RAID1
0 Online 33.9G 0:0.0 noencl <FUJITSU MAJ3364MC 5508>
1 Online 33.9G 0:1.0 noencl <FUJITSU MAJ3364MC 5509>
so all is good there.

let's see...linux drivers accessing hardware info on OpenBSD...
sounds a little unlikely, don'tcha think? I'm really wondering which
"various sites" suggested trying to get the Linux drivers running on
OpenBSD...
