• 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!

  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.

• Dell PowerEdge 2900 RAID and drive down

  I have a Dell PowerEdge 2900 server. The primary transmission table has three drives and RAID 5. The system came this way, and it has been humming for quite a long time. Recently, one of the disks has deteriorated and the light on the drive flashes green and light amber. The light amber, I figured, it means that there is a problem with the drive and must be replaced. Then, I found a replacement on Amazon.com drive and installed (the drive is hot, but my cold started to be sure). I installed the drive, but keeps flashing green and amber light.

  I didn't know that I shouldn't have to replace the drive in this way, so I will now try to figure out what to do next. I hoped to reallocate the foreign disk so that I can use it, but my server always shows the reader, not having even if the new replacement drive is in the slot, now.

  I'm running PERC 5 / I integrated utility of Configuration Bios 1.04 - 019 a

  I started the server and you press CTRL-R. I've highlighted the controller and press the F2 key, what is operations. When the operations window opens, there are three menu items:

  Create new VD
  Zero Config reset
  Foreign config

  The only thing that I am allowed to do in this menu is to reset the configuration. I can't move my cursor upwards or downwards for one of the other choice of two menu.

  Scroll when the virtual disk and he discovers, it still shows the first two discs and a lack.

  When I press CTRL + N to display the next screen, I see a player listed as failed.

  How can I rebuild my RAID with this new drive? If I can't do it, what is the best way to remove the RAID and start over? If I delete the RAID and do it again (and if my replacement drive is indeed well), how can I make sure that my server not to see it, not having so that I can start using it?

  Alternating flashing green/orange means that the disc is in a status of predictive failure. What OS is running system? If you hotswap drive next failure they may possibly other issues table because the drive was online and participating in the table with errors on the disk. The adequate alternative method is to use our software Openmanage Server Administrator to run a consistency check on the table and then the drive offline. Once this has been done you can then swap the drive. It seems that in your case, that the new drive had bad data copied on it and it made a predictive failure as well. We want to do is run our hard drive diagnostics and test drives in the system.

  Install and run the GUI version in the start menu. In the left pane select the PERC 5 and then in the lower right pane select quick test and then to run tests.

• Added another HD to create an external symbol on my server PowerEdge 2900

  I have a PowerEdge 2900 server, I thought that there Raid 5, MS Server2003. It is running out of space. I bought a to-exchangeable 2 hot - 3.5 "LFF - SATA-600 - 7200 RPM. I intend to add it as an external physical drive. If it is feasible, should what I do. Help!

  Never turn off to introduce a hot-swap drive.  Just insert it.  After a few seconds it should show on your list of physical disks in the OMSA.  If the ready state, then you can set it up in a RAID (drop-down menu for PERC) array.  If the foreign State, then this foreign configuration must first be authorized (also in the controller menu).

• PowerEdge 2900 on board sata ports

  I have a PowerEdge 2900 server and would like to put in a single spare 2 TB SATA for additional storage (non-critical).  The motherboard has two onboard SATA, A & B ports.  When I try to connect the drive onboard SATA ports, the BIOS does not detect anything, and when I change the type 'Auto', save the settings and restart settings are not stored in the BIOS.

  I don't know if the SATA motherboard ports supports hard drives, or if there is other reason things do not work.  I tried different cables and tried the drive in another computer, and everything works fine in another computer.  Plan to put in some additional SAS drives in the drive box, I'm looking for an intermediate solution.

  Any help is appreciated.

  Thank you
  Josh

  I've seen this same problem and fixed it. He must go to "Shipped" in the bios and enable "Onboard Sata".

• DELL Poweredge 2900 - disk failure

  Hello

  We have an old Dell Poweredge 2900 our SQL Server database running server.  Last week, we discovered that Raid 5 is degraded and disk 0 disk 1 is seeing completely to the bottom and the poster.  We were already down, so even if we had it running by buying a replacement of the SAS 146 GB 10 k disk we would still be short of storage of data of space.  I bought a SAS Seagate Cheetah 15 k 600 GB ST3600057SS and I would like to replace the failed drive with it.

  Question:

  (1) open handle is not installed, but want to install.  What version I can use for this 2900 server.

  (2) my replacement of a 146 GB with a 600 GB can work?

  Please for your advisor as this database server is essential for my operation of the company.

  Thanks in advance

  Hello.

  ISOSA

  (1) open handle is not installed, but want to install.  What version I can use for this 2900 server.

  Download OpenManage Server Administrator v7.4.0.2 form this link: http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/19/Drivers/DriversDetails?driverId=MGRG4

  ISOSA

  (2) my replacement of a 146 GB with a 600 GB can work?

  Replacing 146 GB with 600 GB of disk drive will not provide any extra space you need because the table will use only 146 GB of total space 600 GB on the new drive. What controller you have installed? In case the only option available for you that your controller does not support the extension of ability online (ECO) could be to backup your data, delete the existing RAID array and re - create another table with the new readers of 600GO. Restore data from backup and re-install the operating system.

• PowerEdge 2900 Perc 6 / i internal Raid Controller

  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.

  Thank you

  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.

• Dell PowerEdge 2900 - need to use internal drives for RAID

  Hi all

  I am the I.T. guy for small business from my father. I help them on the side.

  They have recently purchased a PowerEdge 2900 server used with 4 internal SCSI drives

  This server also has a Dell SAS 5 / i integrated controller

  I want to install Windows 2008 R2 standard on this server and use it as a file server and a place to host QuickBooks Enterprise.

  The problem, in that I am running is that I can't find in the Bios or anywhere in the server startup utilities where I can configure the 4 internal drives as a RAID 5 array. I want to do this and THEN install the Windows Server operating system. I used the last Build Server utility Dell and also updated all the firmware to the latest versions. The Build Server utility doesn't let me configure the RAID array.  What I'm missing here?

  Thank you very much for your help!

  I upgraded to a PERC 6 / i integrated RAID controller and now problem is solved. Just need a new controller internal RAID.

  Problem is solved!

• The PowerEdge 2900 server RAID

  Hello everyone and good day

  I have a PowerEdge 2900 which was erased and raid configured with 2 discs and ready for os install. However when you try to use the Server Wizard, I get an error that his stats can not detect readers or they are not initialized. I do all the raid configuration and should be ready. I took a peek in the bios of the main server and I do not see listed in the boot sequence raid controller. all I see is cd rom on b sata and hard drive. until the server has been annihilated the raid controller has been listed in the boot sequence menu. I changed a setting that I shouldn't have or I am missing a part of the process? No matter which lend a little and fix this? I would like to get the server operational return. the server has a perc 6i

  When I got is the server was running. However, he came from a health care facility and had to be wiped.

  I have it wiped myself just by going to the raid controller and removing the VFD and reconfiguring with new configuration.

  Please tell me that I don't have just the weight of the heavier paper in my office.

  You must configure AND initialize the virtual disk (table)... tick all the boxes advanced and Initialize during the creation of the VFD.

  You can also use a version of "server Wizard" (obsolete) that does not support the hardware in your server.
