PowerEdge R805 drive replcement

I replaced the 2 hard drives mirrored on my PowerEdge R805 recently, with the new series of HDD 1 TB SAS for a higher volume, configured as Raid 1 (200 GB for a partition system; 800 GB for the data partition). Subsequently, I needed slot in the old hard to recover some documents from them, but the machine can't see them. Can someone show me how I can make the server recognize the old hard drives? The old hard disks are size of 500 GB, configured in Raid 1 (100 GB for the system partition; 400 GB for the data partition).

You can challenge it-go in the RAID properties and activate the table.

so, in the POST... intercept the keys CTRL + c prompt. Select Properties adapter - then raid - you should see the two VDs, if the original will be 'inactive' you simply activate the table.

-I moved several data discovering VDs SAS6iR controllers... It is possible entrrely.

  • PowerEdge R805 - Replaceable HD hot

    I have a PowerEdge R805, which shows a lack of HD (E1810).

    What is the best way to determine if the drives are hot-swappable?

    There are two (2) disks on the server - I guess they are mirrored and replaced once the mirror will be rebuilt automatically.

    They are.  If the disks are on a bottom of basket and accessible from the front of the machine, they are exchangeable hot.  Hot disks are the only option on a R805.

    As a general rule, the reader will rebuild automatically, but if not, then you must assign as a hot spare to start reconstruction.

  • PowerEdge T610 Driver built-in Windows Server R2 2012 - Matrox graphics card?

    Hi, so I just upgraded our t610 server to windows server 2012 r2, but unfortunately I ran into a problem where the default driver for the graphics card is "Microsoft Basic Display Adapter."  I did some research and discovered that the graphic chipset embedded is a Matrox card, I tried several different adapter manual but with no. avail.  The reason why I'm trying to find the right driver is b/c the current detects properly the resolutions for all monitors that I connect to the server, so all the images on the screen are a little distorted.  Please can someone locate me a compatible driver for a manual installation?

    -Jay

  • Poweredge 1950 drive replacement

    Hi all

    I have a an old PowerEdge 1950. There a PERC5I controller and SAS 36 3 discs. One of the disks is blinking yellow and must be replaced. It is an old server that I adopted from the previous admin. It has installed Redhat Linux. With this controller are these hot-swappable drives? Can I buy a new drive and kick him out so he can rebuild?

    PowerEdge 1950

    G8762 hard drive, 36G, series AttachedScsi, 3, 10K, 2.5, FJT, AL9SE
    PERC5I, SERIAL ATTACHED SCSI, 1950, 2950

    Yes, accessible outside of the system drives are hot-swappable, and you SHOULD switch the "hot" reader when replace you it.  Simply remove the old drive, wait 30 seconds or so, then insert the new.  If the drive flashes an alternating, orange/green, then the drive is not yet in offline mode and must be forced offline before replacing.

  • PowerEdge 2950 drive cannot be used offline.

    This player continue offline by itself, the reconstructions of controller.

    I have a new drive, but when I take the offline... In the administrator it goes to a blank page, run option. I go back to the page and it is still online.

    It is RAID 10 with 4 disks and two spans.

    The property page saying no failure predicted by the drive - itself not disconnects once per day.

    Thank you

    You can simply remove the drive. Take first in offline mode is just "best practices"; There is of course no warning when a drive goes down for real.

    With respect to the disconnect between the OMSA and hardware... Ensure that OMSA firmware and drivers are all to date.

  • PowerEdge R805 and Opteron 2435

    I have two PE R805 servers and four Opteron 2435. On a single server, all four processors operate in every possible combination. However, when I try to use the same processors in my other R805 he will not bring a VGA boot screen and sits idly and does not appear at startup. There is no POST messages or errors on the LCD screen.

    Do only some models of support R805 (different motherboard numbers) opteron hexacore platform? The R805 problem came with 2 x Quad-Core AMD Opteron 2360 SE of chips.

    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    A new mother Board of review can go in aversion 1 chassis?

    Yes, all revisions will work in each chassis. All revisions are retro-compatible, so if you install a newer Board everything should continue to work normally. If you install an old Board, then it could cause problems.

  • PowerEdge T310 size maximum Sata HDD

    I would like to put a 6 TB of SATA HARD in a Dell PowerEdge T310 drive, but before you buy the car I want to know if it would work.

    I do not want to use RAID functions, let me just reattach the drive using SATA.

    On the technical specifications for the server, he said that SATA is 2 TB maximum internal storage is from 12 to.

    Kenny_G1892,

    With the T310, with SATA, technically drive 6 TB has not been tested, but it is not a limitation of current. Currently the largest, we propose you for the T310 is a 4 TB drive. I would say that it needs work, but remember that with some operating systems, there is a limit of 2 TB.

    Could someone please let me know why the reboot is happening?

    You can also drop in the newspapers of the host-d and/or information provided by a dump of support?

    My suspicion is that you can have something material related current. Have you checked the hardware section of the cilent VI or the HP tools?

  • 5.1 E30931 POS could not launch a backup

    Hello

    I have a problem with backups of POS.

    Yesterday, I rebooted my server ESXi and my SAN. We use Dell PowerEdge R805 2 x for the hosts and a Dell PowerVault MD3000i SAN.

    Because we are changing to a PowerVault MD3600i, I unplugged some cables iSCSI (while the server was closed). Now, each host is connected with 1 single cable iSCSI SAN.

    After launching the servers, everything worked very well, wait for backups of POS.

    POS displays the following error message:

    E30931 could not start a backup or restore of a virtual machine because no proxy has been found to maintain the virtual machine

    Unfortunately I have not found something about this error, so I hope someone here can help me!

    My understanding of the error >

    POS has 8 proxy backup internally, making the backup. Unfortunately, the poxies are not initialized in your case.

    Have you tried to reboot the device?

  • Internal hard drive inside Dell PowerEdge R710

    Well then clarify first of all. This server is NOT used in a business environment. Its literally being used as a home media server (Yes, exaggerated way I know but I got for free so who is complaining).

    IM currently using a PowerEdge 2950 as my media server, I just took his upgrade, a R710 Gen 2 and I would like to use all 6 bays at the front for hard drives that I can put the plates on instead of 1 for the operating system and then everything else for the media.

    How I would go about installing an internal hard drive, preferably a SSD, inside the R710. I know it has a free SATA port but I can't seem to see the spare power cables or cables molex as there is in the Gen 3 2950 I.

    If it is not possible, it's quite good, but I would like to have installed an internal hard drive.

    I know there is a USB port, but I use Windows Server R2 2012 (probably soon to be Server 2016) but I'm not sure if Windows Server can be installed on the internal USB port.

    If you need to record, or on the label of service I can give you this information.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you

    Arron

    Thanks for the clarification. It's something that you can try, but it is not supported and there is no guarantee that the SSD will be detected and it works perfectly. Try this P/N GP700 cable

  • Drive failure PowerEdge - no option in offline mode

    I have a disk failure and a drive failure on one of our PowerEdge servers.  I have an option for all offline player with the exception of the complete failure of the drive one... I have the possibility of the failure of the planned route.   Looking at the screenshot below, it seems complete rupture disc (2) has already been removed from the DESCENT and my hot spare has been disadvantaged.

    What is the best way to proceed here?

    It is already offline, it is not necessary to force offline before removal. You must force offline your pred fail (1:8) drives before removal/replacement.

    Abu-Said,

    It seems that the issue may be that the raid driver is not loaded. How you try to load the operating system, starting at the press of 2008?

    According to the controller, you'll have different driver files. If you have the H310, H710 or H710p then this is the driver you'll need - http://www.dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/19/DriverDetails/Product/poweredge-r720?driverId=M20VR&osCode=WS8R2&fileId=3160710291&languageCode=en&categoryId=SF
