• Updated full M610/620 PERC H310 Mini RAID 1 disk

  I have 8 servers in my M1000e chassis.  They have all two drives 146 GB in Raid-1.  Just got in a boat load of 600GO drives gently used off PE R630 servers who are re-designed in a laboratory.

  I would like to replace all the records with the largest, with minimal downtime and no data loss.

  Advice? Tips? Advice?  Everything would be extremely appreciated before I mess up and make + 400 users very angry with me...

  Hello.

  It is possible to perform this operation with minimal downtime. Ensure that you have a backup validates your data just to be safe. You can do this by deleting every old hard drive and replacing with 600 GB disk, one at a time. Let the new drive to rebuild completely before replacing the other. You can monitor the progress of the reconstruction in OpenManage Server Administrator (OMSA) if installed. Clear the foreign configuration if it appears on the disc, if the drive rebuilt and state LOAN ; assign as a Global hot spare.

  You will notice that the total capacity of the virtual disk (VD) will not 600GO, because there will be unused space on the disks. You will use the property capacity expansion (OCE) online from your controller to claim unused space. In OMSA, GB storage-> PERC H310-> virtual disk-> available-> Reconfigure tasks-> capacity and continue. Under RAID level, select RAID 1 and enter 100 to recover any space unused on the disks and continue. See schematic illustration below:

• Dell Perc H310 T420-compatible hard drives

  Hello experts,

  I have a server T420 with 8 Bay running 2 SATA 3 "switchable hot 5 Dell hard drives.  The controller is a Perc H310.

  I would like to know what kind of hard drives could be integrated into empty compartments. I would like to use non - Hot Swap as well to extend storage. Buy standard 3 "5 7200 RPM Sata Hard Drivies? Will it work?

  Thanks in advance. Appreciate your attention.

  Concerning

  Afreire,

  You can use enterprise class SATA disks up to 4 TB in the remaining locations. You will need to the carriers for the readers, even if they are non-RAID.   H310 controller supports the use of JBOD (just a bunch of disks) without having them in a RAID.   OpenManage them will see as non-RAID drives.

  Kind regards

• PERC H310 H710p migration

  Hello

  I'm not an expert in RAID configurations but I am in charge of server Dell T320 my company and we will replace the storage controller that comes with it (H310) with a PERC H710p. We have a configured RAID-1 and we will continue to use the two disks of same after migration. We will replace the controllers.

  I know I have to do a backup before you replace the Exchange, but we will lose the RAID-1 configuration and data (including the operating system) after migration? Or it will be transparent to the system after reboot?

  Where can I find a type of paper that could guide me through this process because I don't want to wreck anything.

  Thanks a lot for your help.

  Jorge

  Hello.

  It is advisable to back up your data before performing any maintenance task. Ensure that you have a backup is valid data. The PERC H710 P supports the migration of virtual disk controller PERC H310. As a best practice, make sure that the hard drives and firmware H710 P is up to date. Replace the H310 and update the H710 P firmware with the controller cables disconnected from the background. Stop the server and connect the cables of the controller in the background and then restart.

  Your RAID configuration can be transparent to the system or appear in a foreign configuration. Clear the foreign configuration through the utility OpenManage Server Administrator (OMSA) or Ctrl + R for the POST.

  I would like to know how it works for you.

• R320 / Perc H310 / SATA 3.5 - want to use SSD

  Hello

  I recently bought a Dell taking r320.

  Unfortunately, I realized that I would have probably gone to Perc H310, am looking to upgrade. I would also like to run with SSDS supported, even if it is in the format of disk 3.5 "caddy. Can someone help me determine what parts I need to buy for this specification. I don't mind move from SATA to SAS (no doubt, it's just a change of cable?).

  Thanks for your help.

  Looking at your photos (which somehow only published this morning, but with a timestamp older than my response), you don't need to worry about wiring. Backplane SAS aura disks SAS or SATA, 2.5 "or 3.5" variety.

• Reference Dell PERC H310 drivers

  I want to install a Windows Server 2008 operating system on a new PowerEdge R420 and I need to install the drivers for the PERC H310 controllers but I can't find the drivers as the only windows setup exe files or DUP which doesn't help since I always is not a running operating system.

  Can someone please tell me where to find this driver or how to get around this problem?

  You can use the switch/extract for the DUP or you can use the 'hard drive' version (ZPE).  Since you didn't say what version of 2008 you have been installing, I took the trouble to post all the:

• Issue of PERC H310 Drive-Through.

  The H310 (or any PERC card) continues to monitor the health of player even though the player is not part of a raid array. as a non-raid drive?

  Eend_Dylan,

  Regardless of the configuration of the hard disk, raid or non-raid, the controller will always make the health of readers. So using OpenManage Server Administrator or OpenManage Essentials, you can see the health of disks as well.

  Let me know if it helps.

• Need driver for PERC H310

  Hello dell and community!

  I never thought that I need to contact the community to the problem. However, now the day has come. Before describing the problem, I must say that your hardware and software provided is very good and I'm happy to use your equipment.

  I needed to install windows server 2003 x 86-based PowerEdge T420 (serial number: B4 * 2). I am well aware that this server is not designed for this operating system. Unfortunately, available only on a server and the decision of the tasks it involves the use of a dedicated server windows 2003 x 86 (used for the automation of industry), that is to say without virtualization.

  I found these instructions here:
  en.Community.Dell.com/.../3846.How-to-install-Windows-2003-on-Dell-12th-Generation-PowerEdge-Servers
  I have done it. However, after the installation of windows server 2003 x 86 me when with the logo displays BSOD (0x0000007b, ATA SATA mode is selected in the BIOS). Third party connection LiveUSB showed that shocks, unfortunately, are not created, even if I choose an option by pressing F8 before starting the system.

  I think that I stocked up on a bad driver for H310 flash drive, but there are doubts about this.

  USB stick with the driver for the appeared H310 tool

  NOTE from the ADMIN: Broken link has been removed / replaced this post by Dell >; l = en & s = gen & driverid = R140774

  The driver downloaded from here:
  www.avagotech.com/.../MegaRAID-SAS-9240-8i
  The MegaRAID SAS - XP x 86 signed, Version 4.32.0.32 driver name (in fact, I tried several different drivers, but for me it did not help).

  But, because of this doubt, if I choose to boot from a LiveUSB and point the driver like on a flash drive by utility Dell USB key F6 Driver utility, the sections are connected and well I can handle. LiveUSB, by the way, is based on Server 2003.

  Help me please. Apparently there is no relevant information, many files are not available, I've read these instructions here:

  What are the steps I take to performance windows server 2003?
  Thank you in advance, your team is great!

  First of all, I strongly suggest that you buy a server used on eBay or your local classifieds.

  Second, I suggest you that allows you to integrate the driver of your installation instead of the USB/F6 function media puff nLiteOS.com. (Integrate SP2 if not already included while you're there - the drivers might need SP2.)

  Are you sure that your "industry automation' may not work on a virtual platform? Many will work.

• Migrate PERC4 RAID 5 Dell PE800 to Dell T320 on Perc H310

  Hello

  I had a server that has failed before we time to replace it.

  The old server does not (no display may be motherboard failure). Can I insert the disc on the new server and try to import the disk raid configuration?

  I know it will work the same PERC chip but PERC4 to PERC 310, I think that this will work?

  No, you cannot import a configuration 4 PERC PERC 5 +. 4 PERC - is SCSI, 5 + is SAS PERC.

• Impossible to update firmware H310

  As the title says, I can't update my card H310 raid with this firmware:

  If im using it says my system is not supported for windows and Linux, he just spits it;

  and then nothing happens.

  I tried several different computers with attached disks and not attached to the controller.

  In fact I just managed to update my latest firmware A10 H310 card using this guide which has a download link to all the necessary files in a convenient zip. :)

  Edit: darn it looks like I'm not allowed to post links, so just do a google for 'come back your Perc H310 to its firmware Dell' and you can find good WordPress blog.

• Upgrade H310 mini to mini H710/P

  I use a RAID1 and a mini volume RAID 5 on r.620 with PERC H310.

  However, due to performance issues, I would like to upgrade path my mini H310 H710 or H710P.

  Is it possible to do without any reconfiguration and data wipe?

  Yes, the H710 supports the migration of virtual disks H310.

• T420 h310/H710

  Please, I could do with a quick bit of advice.  I have a T420 with 8 bays, with 4 x 3 TB hard drive in a raid 5\ HW by PERC H310 (not a lot of data here) and 4 x 2 TB HARD drive full of data.  The 2 TB drives so far have been using pools of storage windows via windows essentials, there is no virtual machine on that server.

  There is no return to the top of the data to any external storage. I know that before you say something more.

  When I change the PERC for H310 to H710 raid 3 to 5 shows but I don't see that the pool of storage 2 TB in PERC or in the life cycle of dell and windows bios is fallijg to start. I can only imagine that the H710 dose not support JBOD here for windows can see no never it immobilized for priming.

  So to solved this problem, I thought that maybe I could install the H710 on bus 6 from the motherboard (where its meant to be) and run half of the black plate with 3 TB disks in and then plug the H310 a second PCI - e and just so that I can transfer the data through while on windows run the other half on the black plate.

  Don't you think that this will work only for a data transfer? also you re you timidly storage?

  I have one still working on a budget to get more than 3 TB.

  I could set up a second storage of some kind if I really have to, but it would take a lot of time to transfer data between two times and would therefore add no it if possible.

  I'm just a home user with very little experience of dell servers, great curve of learning for me.

  Thanks for your time on this in advance.

  NotKnowingAnyThing,

  You're right, the H710 does not support the configuration not RAID (JBOD); That's why the 2 TB of storage was not visible to Windows. Theoretically, the system does not support the 2 internal controllers, but they are known to work properly.

  Based on the internal priority PCIe Slot RAID System 6,4,5,3,1; you need to install the controller H310 on slot (bus) 4. Before any connection, check in OMSA make sure that 2 channels background basket separately is connected to 2 TB and 3 TB of storage disks.

  Let me know if you have any questions.
