How to format everything on UCS C240

Hello

After we finish of PoC, customers want format all hard disks.

Is there anyway that we can do?

We have 2 SSD, 6SAS disks.

The OS was also ESXI 5.5

I was trying to find a command on ESXI, however, I could not.

Can someone tell me how to format all disks on this platform?

Thank you.

Jiyoung,

As far as I know there are 2 different ways to achieve this.

1. If the C series is integrated with UCSM, just create a strategy of scrub in the SP connected to the server and set it to YES. then restart the server and as soon as the discovery is completed. Dissociate the SP from the server and will lead policy scrub clean the hard drives.

2. If the C series is a Rack Mount. Just remove or change the configuration of any other Raid Raid # except the one you already have. So who will wipe all the information stored in the hard disks.

Please note ALL useful answers

    Hello

    I don't know what you want to do exactly. HARD disk can be formatted before installing original recovery image that you got with your machine but also if you want to install the version of the OS.

    If you created the recovery disc you can format the HARD drive by using one of the available options (erase the hard drive) - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD1303440001R02.htm
    In the case you want to use the installation of Microsoft at the beginning of the installation disc disc HARD current will be shown. You have the option to delete existing partitions, create new partitions and install the Windows operating system.

    Please let us know what you want to do exactly.

    How to format my 'C' drive which is clear of all my files and programs? I want to sell my computer but don't want anything of mine on the disc.

    Hello

    You format the drive as part of the resettlement process.

    Do a clean reinstall of the operating system of your computer to the factory settings; State new, as it was purchased.

    But remember that nothing is definitively deleted; only the 'flag' to where the files are located is removed.

    It is a good program to use to wipe the hard drive of most of the attempts to access your information 'deleted '.

    http://www.DBAN.org/

    Then install the own.

    You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

    They should do this for a small fee.

    And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery on the drive Partition hard reinstall Windows how much you bought your computer.

    The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

    Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.

    Ask them to the proper key sequence.

    How to format a computer. Please explain to me in detail.

    Hi Adam,.

    It is difficult to provide a targeted and response detailed when you have not provided any details yourself, but I suspect a generic tutorial will do.

    Try this series of videos that should help you: http://www.ehow.com/videos-on_5600_format-computer.html.  Start with the first and do them all to be sure because I am not sure of your reasons (or your operating system or how you setup or what you do or don't have not available (disks, backups,...).)

    I hope this helps.  If this were not enough, and then provide additional details yourself and we will do our best to provide more specific information, required to your situation.  What operating system?  Why are you in shape?  What are you trying ultimately to do (there are several options of format and in some cases that may involve or not drive that is bootable)?  What you are (your system drive, an extra drive, an external hard drive, flash player,...) of formatting?  Do you intend to partition the drive or having a single drive?  You have all disks restoration and installation needed as well as all the drivers you might need on disk or to a flash drive?  You have a backup and, if so, is it a full backup or full backup of image?

    Good luck!

  • How to format my laptop Hp DV6

    Hello

    Can you please tell me how to format my laptop Hp Pavilion Dv6 I have Windows 7 on it. I also see a partition recovery on my computer option.

    My system has a root virus inside. Whenever I Boot scan my computer I see a lot of viruses. I tried to remove it too anti-malware and spyware. But I can't get rid of it. Using spyware last week, I lost all the files in my system. Then I had to use recovery software to recover all my data. My friend suggested me to format my computer. Will it be useful?

    Please guide me...

    Formatting the hard drive of your laptop is not a good idea. Ask your friend if he intends giving you a real legal DVD of installation of the operating system on your laptop.

    Please identify your laptop / pc with more than the number of series. Look at the basic/back/side of the pc/laptop to the sticker with barcode. Post numbered items 1 and 2 on the next image.

    Display the version of the operating system installed (and either 32 or 64-bit)

    Are you able to still use the internet?

    What are you using to scan your laptop computer for viruses, etc.?

    Best regards
