• NEED TO CHANGE MY CONFIGURATION OF RAID 0, RAID 1. PLEASE HELP AS FOR HOW TO DO IT. URGENT!

  Hello!

  I had a glance but quite impossible to find the answers I was hoping to find.  I understand a fair bit about how works RAID and indeed when I ordered my computer, I ordered a RAID 1 configuration, but it arrived as a RAID 0 Configuration. In time, I left and wish later, I do not have, but at the time, I was in the middle of a heavy calendar of study...

  I have a computer processor i7 3 GHz with 8 GB 1333 MHz DDR3 RAM.  It's a few years old but has a bit of life left in it, so I would reconfigure if possible.  At present, it is implemented with DISK 0 have 3 partitions - a 118MB OEM partition, a partition RECOVERY from NTFS of 10,88 GB and a 1.8 to NTFS OS (c :)) Partition main, then 1 drive has a main 63 GB NTFS partition.)  It runs on W7.

  Of course, if I just start to change the sizes of disc autour, I lost the operating system and all and may end up with a metal box not able to do anything. so, where can I start and in what order I progress, please to reach a situation of RAID 1?  I have a complete set of diskettes to install W7 and want to update to 10 by Thursday.  I understand that I have to format the drives to break the current RAID configuration and get the good detection of both discs and am fully backed up, but I need to know in what order I am progressing.

  Any help would be welcome.  Looking forward to some responses!

• Initial configuration of RAID HP ENVY accidentally erased, deleted hard disk?

  I was trying to see if I could find an option to change the my new laptop on AHCI SATA controller, but I should have checked more thoroughly online before trying something new in the BIOS.  It seems that these laptops are automatically in AHCI?

  My laptop had a 1 TB SSHD and a 24GB flash hard drive Cache acceleration configured in RAID 0.  With my minimal knowledge of the AHCI, RAID and IDE, I thought that the withdrawal of the RAID configuration would give me a possibility to change the hard drive in AHCI controller.  Without thinking, I "removed" the RAID volume, and I think I have completely erase my new hard drive and the operating system, including the recovery partition.

  When I start up the laptop, I get the error "boot device not found 3f0", and f11 does not work to try to get into the recovery mode.  The hard drive test always passes the two elements.  I ordered at HP USB recovery media earlier, but I don't know if there is anything else I can do?

  I don't know exactly how the acceleration of the Disk Cache, but my main question is why only SSHD would be setup in RAID 0 factory mode, and if there is a good reason, how do I put up again after the reinstallation of the OS from the USB media?

  After screwing my OS, I played in the BIOS to re - setup the RAID0, but I don't know that I've got it right.  I myself remember the size of the band was set to 128 KB, but I have no idea what was the "Capacity (MB)", or should I put it when I create new RAID?

  Any help would be appreciated.  Thank you.

  Hi, Popo:

  I didn't get the rush of shipped recovery media.

  When you order by regular mail, it may take up to 10 days, so unless you're bored to death, so I would just wait until your recovery media is coming tomorrow.

  Yes, you are right.  The file I gave you is a simple vanilla W8 version and there are no programs whatsoever other than that which accompanies the W8.

  The product key in the BIOS of your PC will work with this file and you get the recovery media.

  You can always want to DL this file and make a bootable DVD just as it is for future use.

  After installing W8, you get the upgrade to W8.1 against the Windows store.

  It may take a few hours to appear as a sort of update should run before updating the W8.1 appears in the Windows store.

  You won't have to look for.

  It will be displayed when you click the windows store.

  You will be able to switch to W8.1 with the regular ISO W8 file, or your installation HP factory.

• Configuration of uplinks FC UCS

  Hello

  I'm confused on the configuration of the UCS CF uplinks.

  the configuration is the following UCS (2 fabric interconnects - 2 different VSAN)--> Nexus 5 k (2 for redundancy - each FI for Nexus one)--> EMC storage

  I have connected 2 ports CF since the interconnection fabric expansion module to the Nexus 5 K

  I'm confused about the configuration on the port in the nexus 5 K?

  Interconnection of fabric is in Normal mode (not switch mode), how do I configure my port on the nexus? What a F port? should I activate NPV on nexus?

  is - good port of EMC storage as F port (on nexus)?

  I'm still new to FC connectivity.

  I appreciate if you can include a configuration nexus 5K model

  Thank you

  The N5K should be mode Switch FC (in front of the NPV mode).  The FI will be NPV (aka host FC end Mode).

  On the N5K interfaces uplink FI both the EMC connection interfaces will be in mode F.  You must ensure that NPIV is enabled on the N5K (simple change without interruption).  Each FC on your N5K port must be assigned to the appropriate VSANS.  Don't forget to create the VSAN on UCS and the N5Ks respectfully.

  The FC interfaces between the UCS and the N5K must be in the same VSAN (except if you use VSAN trunking) or they will not come to the top.  For even if you want to create a channel of Port CF you do on both sides of the link.

  Once your links are pointing upwards, you need your zoning and masking on the table - including a whole other subject.

  Kind regards

• Cannot configure RAID on UCS C220 M4

  I'm trying to setup a new M4 C220 however the option press to enter the WebBIOS RAID never appears.  I also went in MMIC and the only options in there set up RAID 0, 1 or 10 However, we want to use RAID 5.  I tried to reinstall my readers and my RAID controller.

  Hi Cameron

  Which option RAID you bought?

  Is based on the RAID card, you can only create RAID 0, 1, 10

  http://www.Cisco.com/c/en/us/products/servers-unified-computing/UCS-c-SE...

  See Cisco UCS C220 M4 Rack Server Data Sheet

  Modular Cisco 12 G SAS RAID controller
  You can choose the Cisco 12 G RAID SAS controller, which plugs into a dedicated RAID controller card slot. This RAID controller supports RAID 0, 1, 10 (without option FBWC) and supports up to RAID 0, 1, 10, 5, 6, 50, 60 (with FBWC option).

• Replacing hard drive RAID 10 (UCS-C200-M2)

  Guys,

  I'm running RAID10 on UCS C200 M2 and exchanged one of the defective drive.

  Currently, there is beep for more than 12 hours and I guess that the new drive is under reconstruction at the moment.

  In addition, physical drive status is currently on "not well configured" on CIMC. The status changes to "online" after

  the reconstruction end? Will be required reboot when the rebuild is complete?

  Please advice.

  Hello

  If the State of the reader to not configured well. You will need access to the Webbios to change online status and allow reconstruction to be undertaken.

  You will find here all the information required to set the drive to the State once again

• HP Pavilion s5570t desktop computer: single SATA hard drive configured as RAID in BIOS

  Our small computer lab has two offices of Pavilion Slimline s5570t that we have recently upgraded to Windows 10. I noticed that in the configuration of the BIOS for the SATA hard drive, it is defined as RAID. I don't know why. The thing that brought this to my attention, is that the software Intel Rapid storage technology constantly shows about 25% CPU use and there high usage of the disk when computers start first which makes them unusable until the software installs.

  My question is can I change the setting of the BIOS SATA AHCI with no problems and that will solve the problem? The Intel rapid storage technology software version is v9.5.7.1002. It is obviously old and I could update, but I wonder if the real issue is the BIOS setting.

  Thank you

  JohnD

  Thank you for the additional information.

  I'm not sure it tells you, but I changed these settings without having to reinstall the operating system.  I suppose it could be correct.

• Limits of HP Envy Phoenix H9 configuration with Raid drives

  I was about to press the button on Envy H9 with Raid 1 2x2TB readers, but I found that this selection I limited to only 1 optical drive of the selection.  I like the advantage of having 2 optical drives to copy discs, but also like security of the Riad discs in reverse. I contacted HP sales but they could help answer why such a limitation with the Raid configuration. I must point out thatI can select 2 optical drives if I select 2 independent drives. Someone at - it understand why the number of optical discs that me is available depends on if I have 2disk readers in the configuration of the Raid or not?

  Thank you

• configuration of DST in UCS 2.02 q

  Hi all

  We are in the time zone IS (Sydney Australia).

  We just improved our ucs to 2.02 q system and found that the clock of the UCS is fast than before 1 hour.

  As attached shows, we have not changed the time zone configuration after upgrade.

  I am connected to the UCS NXOS and I found the following configuration on the time zone:

  UCS - A (nxos) # show running-config | clock Inc.

  clock timezone IS 10-0

  summer time clock IS 4 Sunday March 02:00 5 Sunday October 03:00 60

  Above summer time config is bad for me.

  In Australia:

  Daylight saving time begins at 02:00 on the first Sunday in October and ends at 02:00 (which is 03:00 daylight saving time) the first Sunday in April.

  Anyone from cisco can confirm that it is bug in the firmware or not?

  Best regards

• UCS - C 240 startup.nsh

  Hi everyone, I just started set up a ucs - 240 C but when the server sends this message appears:

  Press ESC in 1 seconds from startup.nsh, any other key to continue

  How can I solve this problem.

  The boot order is correct?

  You see errors in the MMIC?

• How can I configure a RAID mirror for a HPE-210Y?

  I have two identical hard drives installed, so I'm ready to go. I would like some advice before proceeding. HP is not very good on the posting of this information with the PC service.

  doug25427 wrote: thanks for the reply and the info. The link was in your message. Can you send it again?

  Hello doug25427, the first link is a dead link when I checked it after that I posted it so I had to find another link.

  You can locate the link that I used initially by a Google search for how to create an array of Raid AMD.

  You should see a search with a link result to AsRock. Click on this Google link, and it should show how to set up an array of Raid AMD. It is an Adobe PDF file so you will need Adobe Reader or a way to view a PDF file. The PDF file has 17 pages.

  Although it is an AsRock system, AMD Raid configuration should be the same for any system that uses Raid AMD.

  The current link may also have useful information.

• SSH configuration view RAID ESXi 5 command

  I have several ESXi 5 servers that do not have hard drives. I want to confirm that the disks are in a RAID configuration before I hot swap drives since they are critical production servers and cannot be taken offline. Nobody knows what the command SSH ESXi 5 that will show the RAID configuration? I know there are the vendor specific tools that can help to manage these servers, but I just wanted to confirm quickly the RAID configuration, so I can replace the drives.

  Thank you!

  If you have HP servers (and the HP bundles installed offline) then you have the hpacucli tool to manage the Smart Array controllers available in a shell.

  It is also available through esxcli (esxcli hpacucli).

• What is the best configuration of RAID practice for ESX 3.5 operating system

  Hi all.

  Recently, we encountered a problem.  After the failure of one of the hard drives in RAID 1, all file systems have passed in read-only mode. This table is used only for ESX 3.5 OS. Someone knows how to avoid similar problems in the future? Wich (1, 1 + 0, 5) RAID configuration is optimal for the ESX 3.5 Server?

• T300 with bus adapter host SAS 6 configured for Raid-1, one of the hard drives of 1 TB died.

  I pulled one of the disks 1 to one of the other Dell servers and worry about harming the raid configuration or break the pairing.  Where can I go to see exactly what I do and what I don't have to synchronize the new drive.  I am running Windows Server 2003 R2 on the old server.  Also, even if these discs are the same size, said KA02 on it and says MA08, whatever that means.

  This product ID indicates you have part # SW063. I suspect that there is a typing error because this part number does not exist in my file. It seems that you have JW063 which is a SAS 6/IR.

  Instructions for replacing a drive in RAID 1 to start at the bottom of page 46 of the SAS 6/iR user guide:

  All you need to do is replace the drive. If it does not rebuild automatically, then set the HARD drive as a hot spare replacement.

• Need help with the disks 'unreadable' configuring software raid after the death of the startup disk and system restored.

  I'm looking for some advice on how to restore a windows xp installation software raid 5 that was running on my XP system. I had a problem when the startup disk has failed, but I was able to backup the system before it can. I replaced the drive and restored the system and everything came, but I was not smart to do this and accidently left the readers connected when restoring raid. I don't know if windows has done something when I tried to install XP on the new drive, or maybe something else has happened when I restored the system from the backup, but my raid drives can not be used. There was a moment in the restaurant business I saw a message on the MBR, but I thought that was just for the drive being restored. I didn't have a single player who held any information on the other disks in the system, but I'm not 100% sure on that.

  When the system boots the windows logo screen takes 10-20 minutes before you get on the desktop. Windows Disk Manager takes 20-30 minutes to fill the list of drives and status on the disks three raid is 'dynamic' and 'unreadable' is not reassuring. I suspect it's a problem MBR or partition table that must be corrected before trying to reactive the raid, but this is just speculation.

  The raid drives are on a promise ide/scsi disk and make it appear to start correctly with names and sizes. After that I get nothing. I do not have another scsi controller (or), but I thought I'd try active @ partition recovery to see if she can find information on the disks.

  I hope someone has some experience with recovery like this, because this is a first for me. I thought I was pretty sure running a raid-5, but wouldn't you know, the tech gods have found a way to crush my plans...

  Thanks in advance for any help!
