Dell powerEdge t420, server windows 2008 R2, RAID5, partitioning problem

Hello

[Dell powerEdge t420, windows 2008 R2, RAID5 Server]

I have attached the picture of disk management.

There are

1 extended partition in which it is

1 NTFS logical volume that completely fill the extended partition.

But there is a small green free space 0 MB.

Is this normal?

Thanks for the info. I have install.

I reinstalled the operating system

and in OS partitioning step installation

There were:

a 1 Mb extended partition, then the logical partition.

I deleted all and create 2 primary partition (1 for the Os) and 1 for DATA.

I solved it.

But I don't know if

is the best performing primary or logical partition.

  • Adding appropriate on a PowerEdge R720 Server Windows 2008 R2 Dell drivers

    I'm new on this server model so I apologize if this is a simplistic question. My COMPUTER service gave me 4 servers Dell PowerEdge R720 with no OS on them and no other information or documentation. I was able to get the Windows 2008 R2 OS installed base, but fight with the addition of the drivers necessary Dell or components. Is there an easy way to detect what I have and automatically install what I need?

    You could run SUU from the operating system:
    http://www.Dell.com/support/home/us/en/19/drivers/DriversDetails?driverId=9CXFR&FILEID=3421957643&osCode=WS8R2&ProductCode=PowerEdge-R720&LanguageCode=en&CategoryID=SM

    It's huge (+ 10 GB), then it may not be the best way. You can download and install the drivers one at a time. Start with the chipset driver, then install the drivers for the device with the yellow exclamation marks in Device Manager, have installed drivers 'generic' and all available drivers that are newer to the native Windows drivers - you will need probably the video drivers and the network may be drivers. You must also install OpenManage Server Administrator (Managed Node).

  • Step to convert the current Dell PowerEdge 1800 server in Esxi 4

    We have production server, which is Dell PowerEdge 1800 with Windows SBS 2003 with 3 hard drives in RAID. And then, we want to make this server as VMware Esxi 4 with the same Windows 2003 SBS server. We will replace the 3 new hard disks, but new readers are not the same as the old disks. What is the right next step? Because it comes to the production server, we cannot lose all data.

    1. use VMWare vCenter Converter to convert the current Windows 2003 SBS to VMWare workstation

    2. Replace with 3 new hard drives and install VMWare EsXi 4 CD

    3 use VMWare vCenter Converter to load WMWare workstation image into the new server Esxi 4.

    Please let me know if this is the correct order? Is there a risk? Thank you!

    Welcome to the community - that sounds about the right order =

  • OK, I NEED someone TO HELP me INSTALL LESS ESXi 5.0 on my Dell PowerEdge 1950 Server! And of course, HE IS No. TUTORIAL on this SITE FOR ME HELP!

    As I said earlier:

    OK, I am trying to install vSpere on my Dell PowerEdge 1950.

    Hardware specifications:

    4 GB FB-DIMM DDR2 memory

    x 2 processor Intel Xeon, 2 carrots, 3.00 GHz

    There a RAID BIOS, so I had to create a Raid 0 virtual disk to install anything.

    Drive hard WD 1 TB, it's the one I use for the VD.

    When I choose which hard drive I use, I select the VD, I created, I select my keyboard language, then the configuration scan my material, then he asks me if if want to install, I pressed F11. Then, when it reached 5%, it throws an error: "partedUtil failed with the message: error: can not have a partition outside the disk!

    He says that it cannot install it on a virtual drive? My server is not compatible?

    Edit: There is another error that says: cannot read the partition table for device:

    /VMFS/devices/disks/NAA.60019b90bd8289001e62575a584731e0

    What is going on!!! Why vmware cannot have tutorials on "How to install Esxi on a server with RAID BIOS"?

    Check if the virtual HARD disk you packed is initialized. It seems that the installation is not written on this HARD drive. Back to the HARD Disk Manager (you probably PERC5 / I) to start the process I think is CTRL + R? find your virtual drive and launch. Take a look at the image as an attachment.

  • Windows 2008 R2 DataCenter registry problem

    Hi all:

    A few months ago, I needed to make a full upward from my server and after that almost all still works fine besides that some functions including IE.

    The question I had is with 298 ordinal which is not found in the library iertudil.dll dynamics.

    I can confirm that the iertudil.dll file exists under System32 and tried to replace it with the original installation of the DVD where it was damaged but not yet lucky. I know that I have no malware or viruses that I ran full scans and this issue has happened after the back upward.

    So at this point, I'm sure that the problem is related with the registry key bad that was left when I did the back upward by up to 100%. I would like to make a correction of the registry software and I actually found a good which is accredited by Microsoft, but the problem is I managed to install the correction of the registry software, but if I try to run it, it won't work and it appears that the message '298 ordinal. "that cannot be found in the dynamic link library iertudil.dll

    I'm a bit on a dead end here because I can't run the program to try to repair the registry and looks like the only option is to go into the registry and try to fix it manually. Only problem is that I don't know where to find them and what would be the key to get rid of all bad registry entries.

    Given that I'm avoiding at all costs a repair of windows or pure full install as that would make me a lot of time down on my server, I want to ask if there is no genius out there who could point me where to find this iertudil on the register and the values should be there so I can modify it. Of course, I'll do a registry backup before committing any changes. If anyone can help, I'd appreciate that after googling for hours I can't find all the instructions for a manual registry fix. I'm on a Windows 2008 R2 DataCenter X 64 bit system

    Thanks in advance.

  • Updated PE T420 Server Standard 2008 to 2008 R2

    To run Office 2013, we update our Server 2008 standard 2008 R2, but when he runs his verification of compatibility it reports that Dell PERC S110 pilots must be updated. I checked and the latest drivers (V3.0.0.0134) are already installed - any advice on how to proceed?

    Hello

    The S series is the driver-based controllers. They do not work with generic drivers and Windows has probably not updated the driver in its driver database. I show that you have the latest version of the driver. I would ignore the message and move on. This driver is validated to 2008R2.

  • Install a non-of a Dell Poweredge 2850 server operating system

    Hello everyone.

    I was wondering how I could go about the installation of operating system, including Windows 7 and Windows XP on my server. I understand that they are not made for the server, but I would use Windows 7 instead of the server operating system. Windows XP is an option, but I'd rather not, if I have to

    Stick the DVD in the drive and start to install.  Chances are that Windows 7, like server 2008R2 will NOT have the drivers for the controller RAID (PERC 4e/Di), so use the driver 2008R2 for the RAID controller (and any other device requiring disks after installation).

    Controller RAID PERC 4e/Di to 2008R2 driver:
    http://ftp.Dell.com/SCSI-RAID/LSI-LOGIC_MULTI-DEVICE_A00_R227150.exe

    Also keep in mind that PERC does NOT support non-RAID, so you MUST configure RAID before installing, or even with the right driver, no hard drive is visible.

    Potential problems:

    Graphics - you should probably use the drivers of graphics/video 2008 x 64 for a decent resolution.  Keep in mind that server (such as 16 MB video memory) graphics will run NO Aero or high resolution/refresh.

    DRAC - if you have a DRAC (Dell Remote Access Controller) card installed, you will not be able to install drivers to meet these devices in Device Manager.

    Management system - software of management of Dell is NOT supported on the client OS.

    Other:

    In the 2850 processors do NOT support the VT, then you would be very limited with virtualization options.

    Sounds: there is no sound on a server.
