• Insertion/thanks to the RAID controller plug in PCIe card in a UCS C220 M3, rather than embeded RAID controller?

  Hello!!

  We have a UCS C220 M3 server with a 1 TB SAS hard drive and a controller RAID embeded, like this:

  1	UCS-HDD1TI2F212	1 TB SAS 7.2 K rpm 3.5 inch HDD/hot plug/disc horse sleigh
  1	UCSC-RAID-ROM15	Embedded SW RAID 0, 1, 10, 5, 4 SAS/SATA ports

  If I add this controller RAID PCI card to my UCS server:

  UCS-RAID-9266CV =

  MegaRAID 9266CV-8i w/TFM + Super CAP

  US $ 1,686.00

  Going to work with her, ignoring the old RAID embeded it configured?

  The question is that VMWARE is not supported controllers shipped my RAID, so I want to add an external RAID PCI controller to support VMWARE.

  I don't know if it will work.

  Thank you!!

  Rodrigo,

  The embeded controller is built and not removable, it is integrated into each C220/C240. The units are designed to operate with PCIe controllers and mezzanine table when it is properly configured.

  Once you install the controller of the SIPC, you will need to do the following:

  (1) move the conectors mini SAS to the motherboard in the LSI PCIe controller

  (2) make sure that the slot PCIe what optionrom is enabled in the BIOS. (newer systems have their OptionROM disabled in the uninhabited slots (from the factory). If you do not see the OptionROM for the POST, then go back into the BIOS and enable the slot PCIe OptionROM

  (3) while you are in the BIOS, you can thus turn off Patsburg UCS regulatory table (the table embeded). It is of no use at this stage that you removed the cables up to the HARD drive Bay. It is also misleading if left active, you will see the configuration of arrays of LSI utility appear twice during POST. Time for the embeded and once again for the PCIe LSI controller.

• ESXi 4.1 update 1 and Raid 3ware 9550SX card

  As the title says, I'm trying to get a raid 3ware 9550sx card work with ESXi 4.1 update 1.  I tried to load the drivers from the card via the CLI and in the end, received a message "host not was not updated, no change not required.  Newsletter from skip AMCC_2.26.08.035vm40; It is installed or obseleted. »

  However, when I try to find the raid controller of adapters for storage, the VIClient Configuration tab, I don't see it.  I do something wrong, is the driver included in this version of ESXi (I'm on a new installation started from a USB key) or is there another step after installing the driver I am skipping until I can see the map and use drives connected to it?

  Thanks for any help,

  Ryan

  Well, I have work.

  Here's what I had to do:

  Follow the instructions here free: http://kb.lsi.com/KnowledgebaseArticle15548.aspx

• Controller RAID Pavilion sees reinstall my biggest records according to the OS, but Windows does not.

  I removed the two 500 GB drives orginal my Pavilion CTO (set at the factory in a RAID 0 configuration) and replace them with two WD Velociraptor 1 TB drives.  I started from my set of recovery operating system (3 DVD) discs and restored the system.  The restoration wrote to one of the disks.  After completing all the starting tips for first time Windows, I ran the utility Intel Rapid Storage Technology (RST) and rebuilt the RAID 0 volume, taking the option to keep the data residing on the first hard drive.  The accumulation of volume took several hours.

  The bishoprics of controller RAID Intel than drives are drives of 1 TB, and it built a 2 TB RAID 0 volume.  However, even after restarting a few times, total area of 1 to 7 see only Windows on the C: and D: (original image) logical drives, rather than the actual volume of RAID 2 to.

  How can I get Windows to recognize the larger volume?  Is it possible, or is the 1 TB capacity 'wired' somewhere in my system?

  Note that throughout this process, I left "Mode SATA controller" = "RAID" in the BIOS.  In view of the fastest 10 K rpm Velociraptor readers, I am flexible concerning the RAID 0 configuration; two independent readers would be OK, if Windows would recognize their actual size.  So I did a little experiment: I started in the BIOS, change 'Mode SATA controller' = 'IDE', registered and you leave.  The system starts only a car config, so I started another set of my operating system recovery disc restore.  He rewrote the operating system to one or two hard drives (who knows), but then the system would not start, probably because the disks are connected to a hardware controller RAID Intel physical and will therefore work mode controller BIOS to "RAID".  I recycled power, entered the BIOS and changed the mode of controller to "RAID".  As suspects, the system unbootable, so I now have to reinstall the OS with the controller in RAID mode, but before that, I want to determine if there is a way to get Windows to recognize the size of 2 TB.

  Thanks for the advice; always nice to know some utilities, we didn't ever existed.

  As you suggested, I run Diskpart and cleaned the second disc (instant).

  Then I went to control panel > administrative tools > computer management > storage > disk management.

  I clicked in the unallocated disk area second on the graphic display and went through the dialogue to create a new volume and assign a drive letter.  Pretty painless.

  Then, an "Autoplay" window open on the desktop, and there was my second 1 TB drive.

  It's a wonderful world.

  Now, I just have to remove all the bloatware, apply the updates Windows and HP of 3.5 years, reinstall and reconfigure all my apps, reload my data, make some adjustments and call it a day.

  Thanks again.

• Single controller RAID, LUNs, virtual disk groups question does?

  Hi VMware Experts.

  I have 5 servers (each at full load with local SSDS 8 x 1 TB).

  I'm curious:

  1. If I configure raid 5 (I'll have 6 TB per host), how many LUNS / data warehouses should create? Is it important here? In any case, we still have controller raid just unique, right?
  2. If I use VSANS, is there a difference in the answer above? A data store for each host is probably correct? Or because the VSAN configuration: raid0 /passthrough better to create several data warehouses/LUN?
  3. Insights into the performance here?

  Thank you!

  1. Yes, it is ok, because you have no other choice.

  2. you can't do several stores data vsan. A single vsan by cluster data store is possible.

  No matter how many ssd\hdd for each host that you have.

• R420 chassis due heating controller raid card

  Hello

  We bought 6 Indian dell servers.

  We are facing a problem of severe heat on top of the chassis above the card raid with all these 6 servers.

  the server configuration

  R420 - hexcore single processor 2.2 ghz, 32 GB ram

  Readers 4 x 600 GB 15000 rpm
  (configured as 2 drives in raid 1 + 2 drives in raid 1)

  These servers are placed in a data center - the temperature is around 18 degrees C

  We are facing a severe heating up on problem of the chasiss just above the raid controller

  When the servers are placed one above the other as they are usually placed in a datacenter of the servers heat up between 50, 4-57 degrees celcius

  Support Dell changed the motherboard, raid card, power supply etc. of one of the above servers which is off-production (heating to 50.4 degrees Celsius), but the problem is not resolved

  Thorough review of the raid controller card, I noted that the fins of the radiator on top of map of raid controller - instead of being parallel to the open air is actually perpendicular to the flow of air and is actually trap heat

  the same card in a r.620 server has the fins of the heatsink in parallel to the air flow which remains cool

  has someone else in this forum has noted this and are facing such a heating problem?

  could you please check this and let me know the resolution of this problem

  the heatsink orientation of 90 degrees so that the fins of the radiator are parallel in the open air?

  Thanks for your help

  the dset report displays normal temperatures since it measures the temperature at the entrance (26-28 degrees C) and the temperature of the cpu (57-62 ° c).

  The server works as expected. There is nothing to fix. This has been reported before, and we investigated it. Our generation servers 12 had a massive overhaul with thermal and acoustic design. For this reason, the chassis can become hot to the touch at the back of the system, but it poses no risk to the system components.

  You can change the default fan control to increase the airflow and reduce the temperature of the exhaust gases, but this will increase the use of sound and electricity. Go to the iDRAC - iDRAC settings > thermal. Change the user Option to compensate for fan speed and set the offset of the fan speed to compensate for high fan speed.

  Thank you

• Raid PowerEdge r.620 with single hard drive controller

  Hi all

  I have Dell PowerEdge r.620 with 1 * 1 TB hard drive, Raid Controller using mini H710... When I try to install Win Server 2008/R2 x 64 the HDD is not detecting, I've read in this forum of the disc cause hard does not detect is pilot raid is not installed, but I don't have that single hard drive is possible to set up raid with single hard drive or I don't have to use raid controller but I still don't understand how to set up the server with no raid...

  Thank you...

  Dimm21

  Sorry for the late reply, do you mean raid controller in the server? If you want to say, I always do not install driver coz is new server than i've got...

  I want to know, if posibble install raid on one hard drive and how to configure who... Server raid controller is mini H710

  Thanks for your response

  Yes, the RAID controller.  One you have?  I'll assume a PERC H710 for now:

  The H710 PERC is NOT compatible non-RAID (you cannot use a single disk without RAID)... in order to use a hard drive, you MUST configure a single drive RAID 0.  This must be done in the RAID controller BIOS utility, accessed by pressing CTRL-R during POST when prompted.

  Once configured, you need TO load the driver for the operating system, see the drives connected to the controller.

  If you have a H310, it SUPPORTS no RAID, so you do not have to configure anything in the RAID controller BIOS, HOWEVER, you MUST always load the RAID controller driver during installation.

• Model of card mother T7500 and configuration of the controller RAID LSI 1068e

  Hi, I just bought a T7500 workstation I would get around mid-December. Because of current prices for HARD drive storage, I decided to go with the 500 GB basic disk up to HEALING of Thailand. Thus, I am limited to basic integrated RAID controller. Because I am not familiar with the RAID configuration, etc. I wanted to read more before I dive in. The starting point would definitely find what was right for the Precision T7500 motherboard. Surprise! I can't find information anywhere. Even Dell people (3 different sales and support representatives) have not managed to tell me it's the Intel 5520 chipset (it looks that they believe that it is the motherboard model...). Well, I'm stuck. I would appreciate if someone could provide me with the model of motherboard and Special Edition, all information on the capabilities of the controller integrated RAID (LSI 1068e) would help me determine what drives should I plan to buy. In addition, one thing that is not clear to me what I inferred from the configuration on the website Wizard is the issue around disks > 2 TB. Of after I read it, I was not able to determine whether the problem was related to the simple readers > 2 TB or if it was related to the management of a storage space > 2 TB (which could be composed of several readers less than 2 TB). What I have in mind (remember that I do not have the machine right now) is to 4 X 1 TB drives in a RAID 0 + 1 (which I'm not sure that the integrated controller supports) configuration that will result in the storage of 2 GB mirrored. The operating system is Win 7 64 bit. Thanks in advance for any info that will help me to prepare my setup (buy hard drives, if I can find cheap ones) and find information on the configuration of the RAID. MrBricole

  I'm sure the T7500 uses an Intel Server Board (since this chipset is located on the Intel site under its motherboards, Dell is essentially correct, even if they didn't know why), but it doesn't matter in the context of your question, because the '' integrated '' RAID controller is not actually on the Board.  It's a card (called "integrated" only because it has a slot on this machine).  Because the functionality of the RAID controller is not on the Board of Directors, Board info will not help you.  Everything you need to know about your Council and the entire system, you can get the T7500 manual.  SAS 6/iR (LSI 1068e) RAID controller information can be found here:

  NOTE from the ADMIN: Broken link has been removed from this post by Dell >

  The SAS 6/iR will not support more than 2 TB of drives, or it will support more than 2 TB of virtual disks.

  It will also only supports RAID 0 OR RAID 1 OR both, but not together (not levels no RAID nested as RAID 10 or 0 + 1).

  So with four 1 TB drives, you can easily do two RAID 1 (called integrated mirror in the controller BIOS CTRL-C)... or you can do two 2-drive RAID 0 (Stripe called integrated in the controller BIOS CTRL-C)... or you can run mode non-RAID, with four individual discs in the operating system.  With this controller, those are your only options with four 1 TB drives.

  If you want / need more features RAID (nested RAID, 2 TB of the VFD above, on board levels, cache, etc.), you must upgrade to the PERC 6 / i.

  Do not buy office records class... Make sure you get enterprise-class drives.  If you decide at some point to go with PERC, not only enterprise class disks will be fundamentally necessary, but certified records would be strongly recommended for stability and performance.

• PowerEdge 2950 error - CONTROLLER RAID Baseport FC48h does not

  Hi all

  I went in today to find the following on my PE 2950 problem:

  PowerEdge Expandable RAID Controller

  Adapter at Baseport FC48h is not responding

  No adapter.

  The yellow light on the HARD drive Bay 0

  Can someone help me solve this problem, there was also a defective battery as well.

  Help, please!

  -hiphoptech

  Hi team,

  I FIXED IT:

  SOLUTION/RESOLUTION:

  When I open the server, the battery was still in charge PERC i / 6.

  What I did everything first carefully remove/replace the battery on the controller and just reinstall the battery itself.

  I pressed the power button for 20 seconds with the battery removed from the system and then 20 seconds after that the new battery has been applied.

  Turned on the server noticed that he finds the adapter (received a message in the POST, he was recovered, but the cached data have been lost)

  Press any key to continue or C to load the configuration utility

  You press any button, it reloaded the same prompt and then kicking over the configuration utility. No option has been found which would allow me to load the configuration if necessary. He was only let me delete VD in the controller options. I thought, cooldown may simply need the STATION to recharge, so I took the chance and just rebooted (you mind FORCED ME off system physically even if CTRL ALT DEL RESTART it was on the screen.)

  When I loaded it HDD Bay 0 flashed first, and then other readers, I got the amber light again.

  Reloading of the POST did not show these errors 2nd time around.
  I reloaded all with the post office to see if she took the old configuration and thankfully loaded again.

  It was magical! Crazy adrenline rush here guys... Sorry... and it loaded everything back to the order of March as planned.

  Here's how I fixed that. Thanks for being a vehicle for my troubleshooting!

• Controller RAID for C1100

  Hi all

  I have a Dell Poweredge ("CloudEdge") C1100 server for use of laboratory at home.  Bought by mistake a PERC 5 / i controller to make a table of 4 x 3 TB SATA drives RAID10.  It works, but readers appear only as 2 TB because of the PERC 5 / i limits.

  I * think * I have to get the Dell PERC H700 controller to support 3 TB SATA drives, and I think I found a used one at a decent price.  What worries me is if she will physically fit in the server, like the current 5 / i is a very tight fit.

  Does anyone know if the Dell PERC H700 0K883J will work in my C1100?

  Thanks for any information.  I could not find any type of documentation Dell that specifically lists compatibility part number.

  Hello synthetiq

  Yes, K883J will work. This is the 512 MB card H700 version. The H700 comes in 3 varations:

  Integrated - H700 works only in an exclusive built-in storage location
  H700 adapter - will work in a normal PCIe location
  H700 modular - designed to work only in our blade servers

  You do not have the slot for the integrated or modular controller version, so the version of the adapter is what you use. You can use the version 512 MB or 1024 MB of the H700 adapter. You can also this cable assembly:

• Hard disk replacement 5 RAID PowerEdge T620

  Hi all

  Here's the situation.  One of my clients has a Dell PowerEdge T620 that raids.  Group 0 is RAID 1 with discs hard 0 and 1.  Group 1 is a RAID 5 with 2-6 drives.  The RAIDs are hardware RAID and software either.  I do CTRL + R to join RAID controller at the start of the server system.

  6 player came with a predictive failure (flash green once, once orange flash, no flash, repeat).  It is not indicating that it is bad in the RAID software.  In the Dell software manage Open, he states that it is a non-critical error.  I called Dell and they sent a disc of the same type, style and size.

  Here's my question: since this is a critical server what is the best way to replace the hard drive and the RAID to rebuild.  Don't want to lose all the data on this since it is an EMR system.

  Yes, I guess that the RAID will rebuild itself, so I have to ask if this is also true, a RAID 5 system will rebuild itself when a hard drive is restarted?

  Thank you
  Kelly W

  Hello

  kwilkegrizzlies

  Since it is a critical server what is the best way to replace the hard drive and the RAID to rebuild.

  • You must ensure that you have a valid backup first tested
  • Run a check consistency before replacing or drive offline
  • Disconnected the disk before replacing
  • Hot the disc if you have a bottom of basket. Turn off and unplug replace it if cable.

  You can use OpenManage Server Administrator for offline consistency checks and initiate.

  Thank you

• Adding disks RAID PowerEdge R710

  We have a PowerEdge R710 running a RAID1/RAID5 configuration.

  • PERC 6 / i SAS Raid Controller with 2 x 4 internal connectors.
  • RAID1 is composed of (2) 146GB 15K drives 2.5 "SAS.
  • RAID5 is composed of (3) 500GB 7.2 K Nearline 2.5 "SAS drives.
  • (3) empty bays are available.

  The server running VMware ESXi v5.0.0. We have almost maxed out storage so I need to add storage. I don't know what are the options I have to do this. These are the options that are possible, I hope.

  • Add 500 GB (3) discs the same as installed readers and expand the RAID5.
  • Add 500 GB (3) discs the same as installed readers and create a 2nd RAID5.
  • Add (3) 1 or 2 to 7.2 K near-Line SAS 2.5 "drives and create a 2nd RAID5.

  Can the PERC6 / i controller supports an another RAID5?

• RAID 5 server card intel S5000VSA with AXXRAKSW5 Activation key

  Hi guys. I have a card mother intel server S5000VSA with this intel RAID activation key and I want to create a RAID 5 and use vmware esxi 5.0. RAID 5 is created but the vmware see my only hard drives. Anyone know anything?

  Welcome to the community,

  ESXi only supports controllers real hardware RAID (see http://www.vmware.com/go/hcl). The controller on your Board is most likely a software RAID (functionality enabled through the BIOS) controller that requires additional drivers in the operating system that does not support the ESXi.

  (see http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/server/sb/CS-023422.htm)
