PE 2900 PERC 6 / i PD failed / Normal

Hi all. My client PE 2900 with a PERC 6 / i controller, shows a foreign configuration caused by a failed physical disk which is now reported as usual. It is a single drive non-certified Enterprise / RAID 0 and newspapers SA showed a failure for this disc.  All what is illustrated in the screenshot below occurred in less than 40 seconds.

As the disc is now showing as "returned to normal", this means that the disc is good and the data accessible (X fingers)?

Can I remove the disc and run WD or 3rd party diagnostic to check the drive, and then import the foreign Configuration?

Still learning, so any help, comments, suggestions or advice is much appreciated!

Thank you.

OMSA v. 6.3.0 OS: Windows Server 2003 R2

I would definitely sure that the disc is in good health, but otherwise, you should be able to "import" the foreign configuration.  Only after you import the foreign configuration 'disc' will be available for the operating system.

    OK, so I use a server Dell PowerEdge 2900 with a PERC 6 / i integrated RAID controller

    I have configured the RAID array very well, installed Windows 2008 R2 and works fine and dandy

    The only problem I encounter is that, when starting the server (Post), I get a message on the cable SAS B are not connected or misconfigured.  The bottom of the basket on my server, which goes to the internal drives, has only a port where I can plug a cable between the Perc 6 / i.  Where is the 2nd wire supposed to go?  I can't find the second port.

    PERC connector 0 goes to the bottom of basket. Connector on the PERC 1 connects to the modular Bay. If you don't have the module Bay optional then you ensure that you use the 0 on the PERC and not the connector 1.

  • RAID5 Perc S100 to T110 failed after power failure

    I have 4x2TB disks in a Raid 5.  The screenshot below shows the failure even if all 4 discs seem to be online.  I was able to run the system utility to run a short as self-test on the 4 discs and all this happened.  They also passed the SMART test.

    I don't know why there is a virtual drive non-RAID since I have none of the extra drives.  And, when selected, there is no physical drive assigned.

    Nobody knows what could happen and how to recover from this?  My system does not start at this time.  It should be started with a Windows Home Server 2011 (equivalent to Windows 2008R2) and there should be 2 partitions.  A small 60 GB boot volume and a volume 5.4 TB share.

    Thanks for any help on this.  I need recover the photos of the share volume and that you may need to send to a data recovery service, if I can't fix it myself.

    Note: I tried to start after removing the disconnection of each disk individually he did nothing except to display the drive disconnected missing in the physical drive list.

    Here is a link to see the screenshot in the BIOS for RAID:

    A last thought would be...  Would it be useful to install Windows in a 5th player and try to run manage open or other RAID Utility?

    Yes, it might help. Since it is a controller function driver there is limited inside the BIOS of the controller functionality. OMSA would provide probably more information within an operating system. You must use a USB or other external media since the S100 takes only supported 4 drives.

  • POWEREDGE 2900 RAID 10 HAS NOT DEGRADED

    Hello

    I have a Setup raid 10 on a server PowerEdge 2900, Perc 6 / i. There are 4 250 GB drives, set up as a Raid 10. A drive has failed. I tried the disk with a hot swap size even more recent. The server crashed and restarted, Post message showed during initialization F/W and writing degraded disk virtual, but restarting Ok. When I OpenManage it shows degraded and only shows 3 locations of the physical drive page. New drive is orange flashing on the right indicator light.

    Can someone help me with the permutation of the reader?

    Thank you!

    Madmin46
    Is that possible given that the new drive is not a certified dell disk that would cause problems?

    Yes, and that's the most likely cause. Some versions of the AR4 are posted on several PERC controllers. Many times non-certified readers will work fine, but when certified and non-certified are run together, there are often questions... thinking that it is a American, South African and a Pilipino all English - speaking it may be difficult for the three to communicate because they all talk about the different versions of the same language, and language gap can cause problems on a controller which the tolerance of error and delay (patience) are thin.

  • disk not certified: what are the options

    I just installed a spare drive in my 2900 PERC 5 / i I thought me certified, but is not. It needs to be a hot spare for a RAID 5 configuration. What are my options? It shows as 'foreign' is the physical drives. The only available tasks are blink and unblink.

    Thanks for any advice.

    PS Maybe I should go ahead and order a CERTIFIED disk...

    WD blue is a desktop drive and not would not have been configured on the server of Dell.

    If it's showing foreign and you do not have the option to turn it off, then the drive is bad or the drive is not compatible.  If your other are indeed blue (same firmware), then it's probably a bad drive.  You won't be able to do something with her in a foreign State.

    Maybe you have already disabled the foreign configuration.  It is displayed when you try to configure a new VD?  Is it always show on the screen of physical disks after doing a refresh on this page?

    NOTE: THE PROBLEM WAS MY POWER SUPPLY WAS LOW, NEW POWER ADAPT SOLVED MY PROBLEM.   Read more if you are interested in what happened prior to my tent a different power adapter.

    Original title: vista 32 does not start

    After a reboot could enter the mode safe mode with internet connection.  able to restore good boot known beforehand.  But what normal start attempt would not start completely.  tried to reinstall from hidden factory partition.  07:34 minutes, the installation progessed.  then the machine stop.  When you restart get the message "error during installation, restart the computer, and then restart the installation."  When you try to start in safe mode, get error ' cannot install frrom SafeMode ".". "  I have no bootable cd.  to know about a 'platform of recovery' still tells CD also cannot install from this cd.   can I boot from a "devils of recovery" in safe mode and use the hidden partition to reinstall to factory settings as I tried the first time?  or do I need a full installation CD to get the machine to boot?   My question is should I at this stage of start-up during installation seems to have failed?

    as for what caused this problem?  I recently gave a USB external hard drive, but had not written for her.  did a chkdsk of the external hard disk without error.   When the problem was first happening, I removed the battery and the power cord of the acer laptop then pressed the power for 30 seconds to perform all memory the power button.  He got rid of a problem that I had been meet in which received start-up error message not "adapter acer". with battery removed, laptop power problems have disappeared.

    as the system is now, when I try to start everything now alt F10, I get a screen that reads "change windows startup options for: microsoft windows vista ' ' path: \windows\system32\winload.exe" "partition: 2" "HDD;". " d404533e' "[/ noexecute = optin /deteecthal]"

    (diagnosis of memory showed no problem) by pressing TAB toggles between Vista and the diagnosis.

    I tried to boot with external USB hard drive connected and not connected.   the touch pointer was not working, but was erratic.   Sometimes, I could use a USB wireless mouse when it is started in safe mode.   recently the media player would not charge unless I restarted.  (before the system does not at all which is the theme of this original problem).

    When I try to start using f10, I get a screen that seems to ask for entry. the cursor is held after the detecthal of the line as below. What could of entry to enter the boot to continue?

    Winload.exe

    / noexecute = optin /detecthal

    me. surprised... the problem was that my power supply was low.   the adapter provided enough power for the laptop, most of the time.  but sometimes for laptop needs more power that the adapter could supply... so the laptop would be closed.   When I tried a different power adapter in a store, the fully charged laptop and my problem was solved.  lost a lot of time because I didn't know that the power supply was the problem!

    1. Restart your computer.
    2. When the computer starts, you will see your computer hardware are listed. When you see this information begins to tap theF8 key repeatedly until you are presented with theBoot Options Advanced Windows Vista.

  • PERC H700 RAID 5, 3 disks, 1 Reporting failed and 1 predictive failure

    Hello:

    I have a PowerEdge T410 with a PERC H700, RAID 5 with 3 disks.  The controller reported a failed drive so I replaced the week last with a drive of new/refurbished.  Now only 1 week later it reported another drive has failed and the drive replaced as predictive failure.  Looks suspicious, i.e. I am doubting the controller card.

    I think updating the firmware of the controller first, but not sure if I should replace the faulty drive first, i.e. If updating the firmware could cause table failure.

    Also, if I install OpenManage on a virtual machine (host is ESXi 4.1), OM sees the controller?

    You can access Mode safe? Repeatedly press F8 as you start? If yes you can try Control Panel - device
    Manager - graphics card - Double click on - driver tab - click on UPDATE driver - then right click
    on devices and UNINSTALL - REBOOT.

    Another method to try to get to the desktop (try in normal Windows Mode without failure)
    CTRL + ALT + DELETE and on the tab process EXPLORER.exe and COMPLETE the PROCESS on this subject - then

    Black screen problems are extremely difficult to repair and all patch is usually on a base hit or miss.
    That there is no information on a black screen as it is on a blue screen just adds to the
