Installation of Windows Server 2008 R2 on Poweredge R820, where the hell are the drivers preinstall?

I created a VD to install windows server 08. Readers are attached by the Bay before port hot swap, connected through SAS. Currently, it says that it can't find not all hard drives, I'm sure I need drivers preinstallation of the raid controller for the operating system to detect the drive but I can't find these drivers anywhere on the page list of the driver on http://www.dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/04/Product/poweredge-r820

Anyone know where I can get the drivers? I checked the page twice and I can't find something that even alluded to preinstall drivers.

What RAID SAS controller do you have?

This will cover the H310 and H710 (using the "hard drive" version, run to extract before putting on optical/USB) - found under SAS-RAID/driver:

www.Dell.com/.../PowerEdge-r820

You can also use the deployment/installation embedded utility which can help to install an operating system, that includes drivers - F10 during POST.

  • Installation of windows server 2008 R2 on Poweredge R320

    Hello everyone

    We bought a new Poweredge R320 server in order to install 64-bit Windows Server R2. There are 2 drives inside and they are preconfgured as raid1.

    I changed the configuration of SATA in RAID mode and also initialized by PERC-H310 RAID1 without any problem. When the server starts up, I see the following messages.

    We found no Raid 0 disks

    1 Vitrual disk (s) were found.


    I can boot from the windows media but no disks are found and is prompting me to browse and install the drivers from nesseray. So I downloaded

    I extracted the contents of a USB, restarted the server and when you are prompted for drivers during the windows installation, I traveled to USB which 2 files are found.

    nodev.inf

    percsas.inf

    I tried both of them, but every time I get a message saying to make sure that the correct drivers are found. It seems that is not the correct drivers.

    Could be he you please direct me to the correct drivers? Or if you have any suggestions please let me know.

    Thank you very much

    PS: I posted the same topic in the forum "Blade" by mistake. Apology.

    "Do you mean that if my BIOS/SATA configuration has been set to RAID 1 I should have drivers chipset/AHCI for a successful installation?"

    No, because you are not using the onboard SATA RAID - your built-in SATA is used ONLY by your optical drive, so it should not be in RAID and AHCI usually requires special drivers, which is not required when you use optical drives.  However, pilots of chipset/AHCI may have helped Windows to see the optical drive in such a way that the installation could proceed (if she needs the RAID controller for real hard disks, you will NOT see this particular message - you will see another message when Windows cannot find not all drives to be installed on).

    "When someone would set RAID 1 for sata configuration?"

    ONLY if you use the S110 RAID controller onboard.  You use the H310, so you don't want to mess with the SATA RAID on board.

  • SITE v2.0 failed Installation on Windows server 2008 R2 with SP1

    Installing CPID v2.0 on Windows server 2008 R2 with SP1, the Setup log reported that the installation failed with the error "CustomAction RollBackSccmComponents returned error code 1603"

    I run the Setup with this command after you open the command prompt as 'Run as administrator ':

    MsiExec.exe /i Dell_Client_Integration_Pack.msi

    I even put the command above into a batch file and run it with the same result. With the help of Trace32, I also found this error to be the main problem causing the failure of this facility:

    "custom action InstallSccmComponents unexpectedly closed the hInstall (type MSIHANDLE) handle provided. The custom action must be set to not close this handle.

    Autour Googling, I came across this link: http://en.community.dell.com/techcenter/enterprise-client/f/4448/t/19416814.aspx to try to perform the steps below, but when I did the steps below, the installation just rolled back without even beginning the installation:

    First unzip the files from the downloaded executable deployment package. Then, download Orca here, http://blogs.msdn.com/astebner/archive/2004/07/12/180792.aspx. Once installed Orca, do a right click Extract MSI and select, "Edit with Orca. Once Orca lance, do not panic, just click on the top menu and select, "Transform", then select "Transformation." Then go to the 'Custom Actions' Table on the left and find the "InstallSccmComponents" entry on the right; Change the value in the column "Type" 3073, then go to "transform", "Generate Transform", save the transformation in the same directory as your MSI and select, and then close Orca.

    I found myself by opening a ticket with Dell to get this problem finally solved. After the installation of Dell's Support log shipping, they asked me to follow these steps below:

    1 if the SQL DB is on a separate machine, try to create the "SMS_TaskSequence_Action" class in WMI under \\.\root\sms\site_ >.  You can download WMI Explorer to browse if you want to see if this class already exists.  Run the script below will not hurt if it already exists.

    a. here are the instructions to create the custom class.  First open powershell as an administrator.

    b. set-executionpolicy RemoteSigned

    c. change the extension on the attached in .ps1 file and change the file to replace the "site_abc" by "site_their 3 letter site code.

    d. change the storage location of the ps1 file.

    e... \WMIClassAdd.ps1

    f. restart and try the installation again.

    3. If it still does not work, send me the newspaper install again to look at.

    Note:

    Here is what was in the attachment in step C.

    ****************************************************************************

    $newClass = ' new-Object System.Management.ManagementClass

    ("root\sms\site_abc", [String]: empty, $null);

    $newClass ["__CLASS"] = "SMS_TaskSequence_Action";

    $newClass.Qualifiers.Add ("Static", $true)

    $newClass.Put)

    *************************************************************************

    After you run the instructions above and restarted the server, installing v2.0 CPID ended successfully.

    I hope that these instructions will help someone in the future... :))
