• RAID controller does not have bootable VD

  Hello

  I have a R730 with all the recently updated firmware to the latest versions to try to solve this problem. I need to host a Nvidia K20 (a little old but qualified GPGPU). UEFI turned off so I

  I have 2 hard drives in raid mirror (1) and you set write-back and no read ahead (for the purposes of this problem).

  I can boot from USB and install CentOS on the virtual disk but the virtual disk does not appear in the menu of bootable devices. If I reactivate UEFI, then the drive appears in the list of bootable devices (but the GPU blocks the system before startup - crash looks like this: http://moufie.blogspot.com/2015/01/technology-system-detected-exception.html )

  I have 3 other R730s who have only a single drive and no raid controller. They all work just by turning off UEFI and without further changes.

  Hello

  First thing I did was an update of the bios so I'm on 2.2.5 which should be the last.

  2 mirrored drives are 1.8 to 10K RPM SAS 12Gbps 4Kn 2.5 in hard Hot-plug
  Drive.

  The GPU does not comes with the system

  The processor is E5-2660 v4

  I have now reduced the problem until the disks. I mentioned that I had other R730 nodes that work. These nodes have these discs: 300GB 15K RPM SAS 2.5 Hot plug hard in 12Gbps
  Drive, 3.5 in. I took 2 of them on work systems and raided their together in my non-working system and that it resolves. So I think it's the combination of 4 kN size 1.8 to and off UEFI which confuses the bios and prevents the disks appear as bootable.

  Now that I start to google by searching for the correct terms I'm going with this:

  

  on page 10, it confirms that 4 kN is only supported using the UEFI.

  Thanks for your time!

• Disk HARD/RAID controller not no projection in the State of health

  I've recently updated several ESXi 4.x hosts 5.1 and after the upgrade disks and the raid controller are showing is more in the section of the State of health of vSphere. The servers are all Dell PowerEdge 2950 and I even tried to make a fresh full install which did not help either. Here is a screenshot of the State of health of the problematic server. I need to get this resolved so that our monitoring solution can see the status of the disks/table.

  

  Here is a screenshot of an another PowerEdge 2950 still under 4.1 and it shows the disk controller and raid fine.

  

  Anyone seen this before? or have any ideas on how to solve this problem?

  Thank you

  Greg

  For any other person who comes through this, the problem is caused by ESXi 5.x is no longer handling/Bay record of voting in the same way as 4.x and earlier (see screenshots in an original message for comparisons). The only way to get the matrix of discs/fully new election is to have the ESXi host managed by vCenter (standalone no longer works). Hope this helps others as it was a big headache for me for awhile.

• ESXi Raid Controller

  Hello people,

  I have question for ESXi and my Raid Controller.

  In my server, I use a SATA-SAS/ARC-1222 Areca raid controller.

  When I try to install ESXi it does not recognize my discs.

  
  First of all, I had to set up a Raid set. I put 2 sets of 2 discs of each.

  The first game has 2 150 GB SATA drives. The other 2 x 1 TB.

  After that, I set up the VolumeSets.

  The first series (2 x 150GB) is defined as Raid 1.

  The second has raid 0 (total 2 TB).

  I guess now I'm missing some kind of driver for ESXi.
  But I don't know what to do now.

  The only things I found were:

  http://www.areca.com.tw/support/s_vmware/VMware.htm

  and

  http://PartnerWeb.VMware.com/comp_guide1/detail.php?device_cat=IO & DEVICE_ID = 12728 & release_id = 196

  But I don't know what to do with these files .vmk (5).

  Can someone help me?

  Thanks in advance,

  ReDNaX

  He cannot use the Update Manager or anything like that because that has yet to install the host.

  You must integrate the bundle offline driver directly into the ISO installation. You can use this great tool to create an ESXi ISO that contains this driver:

  http://www.v-front.de/p/ESXi-customizer.html

  BTW, this driver seems a bit more recent:

• E200I RAID controller

  Hi all!

  I installed ESX 3.5

  on a HP Proliant 350 G5 and my RAID controller is e200i. I made 2 of my 72GO

  Hard drives on a RAID 1 + 0 and 4 x 1 TB RAID 5.

  Everything looked very nice, but I don't see my hard drives in RAID 5. I have

  tried to find some drivers for e200i but everywhere is written that these

  drivers are included in the installation CD. When I connect to the server by using the Client - I can see my raid controller, but can not see my additional hard drives.

  If someone has an idea what to do? (o).

  Thank you very much in advance and you will appreciate any help!

  Welcoem to the Forums - 4 x 1 TB RAID 5 means that your datastoe is 3 TB - ESX can recognize only of storage of data less then 2 TB - you will need to carve up the storage differently.

• RAID and TRIM Config for R720xd and SSD

  Hello

  I have:

  • Dell Poweredge R720xd
  • 4 x 800 GB Dell Intel brand SSD S3700 DC
  • 8 x 600 GB Dell brand Savvio 10K.6 hard drives 2.5 "
  • Reference Dell PERC H710P Mono Mini

  I would like to configure the server with a RAID 5 array to another array of RAID 5 for hard drives and SSDS.

  On the SSD, I read that:

  1. The H710P does not pass through TRIM/cancel orders the OS MAPPING
  2. TRIM is not really necessary because the RAID controller has a method to warn the reader that the block is unused
  3. A small percentage of the SSD (~ 5%) should be neglected.  In my view, that it is more provisioning.

  (3) above is really necessary when it comes to RAID with SSDS?  If so, how to achieve this?  Make:

  allocate some 95% of the available SSD space only when you create the RAID volume?

  OR

  devote 100% of the available disk space on the RAID volume and then when I create partitions during the OS installation, leave unallocated 5%?

  Hello

  None of this is important. Questions that concern you have no effect on your configuration.

  jfly

  • The H710P does not pass through TRIM/cancel orders the OS MAPPING
  • TRIM is not really necessary because the RAID controller has a method to warn the reader that the block is unused

  When you use a controller hardware RAID of the operating system has no control on the blocks. The operating system thinks that they control all blocks are virtual, so any TRIM/UMAP makes the BONE's virtual blocks.

  jfly

  A small percentage of the SSD (~ 5%) should be neglected.  In my view, that it is more provisioning.

  During the introduction of reach a level of training. SSD manufacturers allocate space for it. If you want to make additional supply, some drive manufacturers provide utilities to allow you to manipulate the supply, or you can just have unallocated space on the disk. All unallocated space will automatically be used by the reader, but I don't see a need for this SSD is already provided by the manufacturer.

  Thank you

• General on the raid controller and hardware

  Hello

  I have that the hard disk controller or controller raid (0,1,5) does not work on a computer, if I add hollow PCI slot a wil raid controller or hardware, computer, or the raid not works normally?

  Johan

  Hi Johan,.

  Thanks for posting on Microsoft Community Forums.

  Ideally it is dependent on the PCI slot you use, if the PCI slot supports the hard disk controllers and RAID controllers so it will work with the computer. Almost all modern PCI slots supports the hard disk controllers and RAID controllers.

• The RAID controller compatibility

  Hi I just bought a new system and intend to use a RAID controller to configure a RAID array.

  The controller that is available is ""Intel RS25DB080"." I've never done this before so to start I wanted to ask you how can I check if it is compatible with my x 99 Deluxe motherboard?

  (he did not appear on the page that mentions the compatible products: Specifications of RS25DB080 for the Intel® RAID controller)

  Secondly, it would be possible to set up several RAID arrays using a single controller? that is, if I want to do a table composed of 3 disks and another 3 more I have to buy an extra card?

  Also if this controller is not compatible what other controller I'll buy? And what exactly what I look for in a RAID controller if I'm looking for one? (Currently I just check to see if it's a SATA or SAS controller)

  So, basically, do not know much about the RAID needs your help, thank you!

  Generally if you are serious about RAID for the only real video editing solution is arec, because you will need 3 RAID or Raid 6.  There are a number of X 99 different systems with the Areca RAID card installed I am owner of a BOW 1883i, which works very well in my x 99 motherboard, I have it configured with 7 discs each RAID 3 Samsung 840 Pro I probably will be getting rid of it I can get nearly the same results with a SSD of unique m2.  In my old age, I went basic/simple rather than exotic.

• T130 PowerEdge RAID controller onboard or get a card?

  Finally, we got a budget to replace our entire PoS system and got a PowerEdge T130 to replace our T110. What I'm not clear on the RAID controller embedded - is it only the software, hardware or some hybrids; and what are the levels of RAID support? The existing facility is with SATA AHCI and RAID1 controllers in Windows Server 2008 R2 value.

  Our range of SSD in our existing server still in excellent condition, so I want to migrate it on when I'm done configures OS and PoS software. Should I go into BIOS, set up the RAID controller and see what levels he'll give me or I'd better use the physical map of the T110 in the T130? The T110 is currently using a PERC S300 card with 4 SSD in RAID10. Alternatively, can anyone point me to a better RAID card for this server which would do well to RAID10? I shortly before the system goes into the production environment, so I want to change my hardware now while I still can.

  It is only the second build of the full server that I have used in the past 6 years. Would like to hear the thoughts of anyone T130, RAID, etc. Finally, moving into the world of 64-bit, thank God.

  Finally, moving into the world of 64-bit, thank God.

  Welcome to 2009! (Sorry, I understand the difficulties from old tech in some organizations, I do).

  htc2010

  Finally, we got a budget to replace our entire PoS system and got a PowerEdge T130 to replace our T110. What I'm not clear on the RAID controller embedded - is it only the software, hardware or some hybrids; and what are the levels of RAID support?

  Software only - it is based on the Intel RAID chipset and supports RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 10 volumes and non-RAID. It should be avoided.

  htc2010

  The existing facility is with SATA AHCI and RAID1 controllers in Windows Server 2008 R2 value.

  This is what should be done with the integrated RAID controller (S130 - off and mirrored in the operating system instead - IF hardware RAID, which is preferable, is not checked).

  htc2010

  Should I go into the BIOS, change the RAID controller and see what levels he will give me

  Still once, I you would recommend against the use of the S130, AND you can't replace non-RAID RAID on the fly. It would require reinstallation or backup/restore.

  htc2010

  or I'd better use the physical map of the T110 in the T130? The T110 is currently using a PERC S300 card with 4 SSD in RAID10. Alternatively, can anyone point me to a better RAID card for this server which would do well to RAID10?

  The S300, while only slightly better than the S130, is not supported in the T130. I would recommend the H730 or the H330 if you absolutely cannot spend the money for the H730 (they are cheaper suppliers that Dell directly). The two become RAID 10. The H330 will give you about the performance of your S300. If none of them are selected, I'd go with what you vascular (the S130 is your only other option 'supported', and it's garbage). If this system is heavily used, I highly recommend, but if the H730 moderately or less software RAID is fine (you have SSD in the new configuration, I take it...).

• Problem with XServe and XServe RAID via Fibre Channel

  Hello everyone,

  I have a problem with my blended Xserve RAID.

  I see in RAID-Admin and configure it successfully (via Ethernet). Connect with our Xserve via Fibre Channel, but the XServe and XServe RAID do not detect each other.

  The fiber on the Xserve channel LEDs are white on the Xserve RAID completely off and permanent.

  RAID-Admin status of Fibre Channel: 'No connection (1 table)' with a red square.

  If I try to open the utility of fiber channel I get the message: "card Fibre Channel is not found." Utility disk OS X can't, too.

  I changed the card connector cable, and made several reboots. But each time the same thing: they do not detect each other.

  Xserve (2009):

  -2.26 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon 5500

  -Map of Apple dual-channel 4 Gb Fibre Channel (LSI7204EP)

  XServe RAID:

  -RAID 5 in an array (only on the left with 5 x 500 GB)

  -1.5.1 Firmware

  -Cable Apple 4 Gb SFP - SFP

  Thanks for your help and sorry for my bad English!

  Hi Mpm-Mainz,

  Check if you have enabled LUN masking. To be able to see, you will need to download raid admin 1.5 not the 1.5.1

  Xserve RAID Admin Tools 1.5

  Have you also tried to use the other controller? Even if there is no disc in there, then it should appear in the preferences of fiber card system.

  Thank you

• NB305 and SSD

  I recently bought a NB305 for professional use (need for portability and battery life)

  I have a question about. I would like to install a 128 GB Kingston SSDNow V-Series Disc both improve performance and independence.

  My questions are, will this work SSD made?

  It will give me a decent increase in performance? (the SSD in my office are wonderful)

  It will improve the battery life?

  The reason why I ask what should otherwise be easy to answer the questions, is that specific data for the HDD and SSD cards are as follows:

  Hitachi HTS545025B9A300 (5K 500. (B) icurrently in my laptop drive:
  Power plug: writing/power 1.4W
  0.5W low idle power
  875 Mbps (109.38MBps)

  Kingston SSD now V Series SNV125-S2 / 128GB 2.5 ":"
  Active power Specs: 5.2 w (TYP)
  Sleep: 0.7W (TYP)
  Sequential speed *.
  ~ 1600Mbps (200 Mbit/s). read; 160 MB/sec writing.

  Now look at that the SSD is much faster, but seems to come at a cost: she uses more than 3 times the power!

  Can it be good? (and same idle is higher!)

  The numbers in a row are the Web sites of respective manufacturers / PDF files so you would think that they would be fairly accurate.

  Of course, the SSD almost twice as fast - but "apparently" uses more than three times the power!

  I look forward to any thoughts.

  See you soon,.
  Rick

  > My questions are, will this work SSD made?
  Why not? SSDS are no different from hard drives, I think you will need a SATA SSD since the NB300 series supports a SATA HDD controller

  > It will give me a decent increase in performance?
  Well, access to data should be faster and therefore you should see better performance but to be honest, the NB300 is a notebook where these small performance increases would not really important

  > Improve the battery life?
  Hmm perhaps but if yes then an improvement is not really noticeable since the disk HARD is not the main part which wastes the energy of the battery

• Portege M800 - point of exclamation on SCSI RAID Controller driver

• Qosmio F50 series contains RAID controller?

  Hello

  I am looking for a new computer laptop Toshiba and understood on this forum that Satellite P300 series does not have a RAID controller :-(
  To make it short: did the series Qosmio F50 got a RAID Controller? Is it possible to rotate the 2 HDD in RAID 0?

  Hello

  > Qosmio F50 series you have a RAID controller?

  No, as I know the Qosmio F50 series doesn t supports the RAID controller.
  It supports a simple SATA controller but not the RAID and so you cannot use RAID-0.

  Good bye
