Server installation 2012 on PowerEdge T110 II in Raid Mode

I am trying to install Windows Server 2012 on a server PowerEdge T110 II that I just bought.  No software utility disk and the driver provided with the computer!  When I try to install Windows directly from the OS installation disc it tells me that some drivers are missing however it does not list all the specific missing to find out what is missing!  The message reads: "a media computer driver needs is missing."  This could be a DVD, USB or a disk in hard disk driver.  If you have a CD, DVD or USB flash drive with the driver on this subject, please insert it now... »

I read in Guide_en of the user Instructions 2012_Installation your Microsoft Windows Server-we document that I need 7.2 OpenManage that supports the installation of operating system Windows Server 2012.  I got the ISO of OpenManage 7.2.0 A01 from your Web site and burned it to a DVD.  I started the computer with this DVD and was able to get for Dell Systems Build and Update Utility.  From there, I went to set up against Installation OS Server.  It provides a list of supported OS.  Windows server 2008 and 2011 are listed but not 2012!

When I go into the BIOS (PERC S100, version 2.2.3) and change the setting of SATA in ATA and run OpenManage and go to Dell Systems Build and update utility and configure the server against, to presents this time Windows Server 2012 and I am able to go further until it gets to 100% full and restarts.  I insert the installation of Server 2012 DVD during the reboot and it states that "the valid operating system installation media was found.  Press 'OK' to start to install. "A system Build and Update Utility message appears which States:"the temporary Partition is removed.  If an error occurred during the installation of the operating system, you will need to use the Systems Build and Update Utility to restart the installation process. "I press OK and get a Windows Installer message that says:"the file 'autorun.dll' could not be loaded or is corrupt. Setup cannot continue. Error code is [0xC1] 'I burned the DVD of the BONE from an ISO from Microsoft.  I read that maybe the DVD must be burned differently and at a slower speed.  Who can solve this question (not sure yet), but I would like to configure this computer in RAID mode anyway, and first I have to solve the following question:

(1) is it still possible to install Windows Server 2012 with the Raid Configuration on this material?  If so, how?  The OpenManage--> Dell Systems Build and update utility--> set up against server does not list server 2012 unless the SATA is not set to RAID!

(2) when I set up the same computer with Server 2012 as the operating system installed on the site configure from Dell.com and to buy, it gives a configuration error that says "error: 2012 options selected operating system from Microsoft require Microsoft 2012 media.» When I pick/check ' Windows Server 2012, edition Foundation, press release "the error disappears.  Do I need this press kit?  -What is the origin of the problem with the installation?  And where can I get this missing element?

Any guidance you can give me or reference to material appropriate/docs for help would be appreciate because I have lost/spent several days trying to get this installed server operating system!  Thank you.

The T110 II is almost two years, then Yes, compared to 12 G systems, is using older hardware (I suspect that replacement is the T110 II should be out soon).  The S100/S110 is a special implementation of Intel RAID on board, so the S110 is not an option on the older boards that have the S100.

  • How to rebuild Raid1 on Poweredge T110 II

    I have PowerEdge T110 II with RAID 1 created.

    Hi Martin,

    Great info, clears up things on my side.

    It is here.

    Remove the RAID VD, in this case of the last screenshot, the low VD.

    After removal, a hard drive will be available for the assignment of immediate replacement. Reconstruction should start as soon as possible, a spare drive is available.

    Let me know how it goes. : )

  • Cannot install Windows Server on the new server Poweredge T110 II 2012

    HI - just took delivery of my new Dell PowerEdge T110 II with two 1 TB drives in RAID 1, but without any operating system installed.  On the Windows Server 2012 Standard edition installation, the installation routine is unable to detect readers when it comes to choosing the installation location.  I can 'find the pilots', but on the insertion of the Dell supplied DVD, it does not find everything.  I changed different settings, rebooted and tried several times without success.  Entering the system at boot configuration screens, I can clearly see my 2 x 931GB disks and the virtual drives installed on them (I even removed the implementation of RAID and the virtual drives at some point to see if that was the problem).  Any help appreciated.  Regards, Barry

    Hello Barry

    You should have received a disc entitled management of system and Documentation Tools. If you start on this DVD, it takes an option to install an operating system. Follow the on-screen instructions and it should load the required drivers. If this does not work then let me know what RAID controller you have.

    Thank you

  • 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

    SAS Raid drivers from this link: ftp://ftp.dell.com/Pages/Drivers/poweredge-r320.html#Drivers%20for%20OS%20Deployment

    The name of the file is: DRVR_WIN_M20VR_5.2.220.64_A02_ZPE.exe

    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.

  • OS on PowerEdge T110 II deployment

    We just got a PowerEdge T110 II, I followed the instructions I found on the forums like and support documents: use the life cycle, boot on DVD OpenManage,.

    Nothing has worked

    In fact, my server has no life cycle, he has Unified Server Configurator instead. I tried to use the USC and was stuck at the point when he asks for the source of the drivers and the location of the catalog.

    I extracted the relevant drivers in the OS I have try to install - win 2012 R2, I put it in a USB port. Still could not bypass this step.

    I appreciate all help:

    First how to install life cycle?

    How to bypass the step asking the source location and the driver catalog?

    Finally, how to install OS?

    The T110 II, as noted, is not a lifecycle controller.

    Ignore the installation utilities and install directly from the OS to install media.

  • What type of graphics card can I put Poweredge T110 II?

    A result of slots server:

    4 PCIe G2 slots:
    Two x 8 slots (one with x 16 connectors)
    One x 4 slot (with x 8 connector)
    A x 1 slot

    Graphics must support Windows server 2012 (are Windows 8, Windows Server 2012-compatible drivers?). I not looking for something fancy or fast, just something that can take care of 2 monitors via DVI or DisplayPort.

    I looked at NewEgg section of graphics card and it is difficult to understand what type of interface I should take. This is what NewEgg for interface (I see no x 8 or x 4 as shown in the Poweredge T110 II specs):

    PCI Express 3.0 x 16
    PCI Express 2.1 x 16
    PCI Express 2.0 x 16
    PCI Express x 16
    PCI Express x 1

  • Windows 7 will run on a PowerEdge T110 ii? Network drivers?

    I searched the forum search, but couldn't find a clear answer.

    Is - this Windows 7 64-bit work a Poweredge T110 ii? with hard disks that are mirrored and the network drivers? I plan on buying a brand new ii of T110, but I watched the support drivers and did not find Windows 7 on this list, only the Server 2008 and other. Please notify. I want a quality system of server for reliability, but with a client OS.

    I used the Dell system Build and Update Utility to install Win7 on my PE T610. Since the system disk build, I chose Win Server 2008 R2 as the OS to install. I believe that this creates an installation environment with the appropriate drivers for your hardware. After a reboot, the Build environment system asks you to insert the OS installation disc in which case I insert my Win7 installation disc. The process then continues as normal win7 installation process. No need to load the drivers, etc as this has already been done by the utility of generation.

    Note that some features will not work without effort. OMSA must, for example, some functions of the server operating system to this fact will not easily run on a desktop based system. It makes it more difficult to administer your Windows computer.

  • Server Essentials 2012 eval vs questions version complete

    I volunteer for a small nonprofit. I'm helping them to set up a Server R2 windows 2012, (although we expect 2016 Server released before going live with this version

    Currently, we have the server chassis, that we will use and it runs the 2012 R2 180-day evaluation version.

    We have usb external 2 TB hard drives to use for backups.

    Question 1:

    Windows 7 helped you change your CD key after installation. If I get the server running with all the services you want, I could change the CD - key associated with version eval to emitted by MS when we get our license and just put the server into production?

    Question 2:

  • Using Microsoft SQL Server SP2 2012 and update KB2793634

    I'm in control of several servers that are running Microsoft SQL Server SP1 2012. One of these servers is broken to cause the same symptoms as KB2793634 ( http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=36215 ) fixes. This error is due to the installation of SP1 (which has been done on all servers) and will come into action later. I'm afraid that the other servers will be in shortly.

    Prior to this fix, I applied 2012 SP2 of Microsoft SQL Server on the server with the issue in the hope of resolving this. KB2793634 is now unable to run on this server because it is compatible with the SQL SP1. So my question is:

    SP2 includes KB2793634? I want this problem to be addressed before the other servers are affected as this first, then should I install SP2 or just install KB2793634 on other servers?

    Thank you very much, I hope that all the senses. If it's in the wrong place, can you please direct me to where I can ask SQL related questions?

  • PowerEdge T110 II/PERC H200 drive Expansion Question

    We have a server PowerEdge T110-11 with two 600 GB 15K SCSI disks in a RAID 1 configuration via a PERC H200 controller.  This server is used in a production environment.  We want to add an extra internal drive on the server, but the readers (or reader) not be used for archival purposes.  Check-in will be only done periodically at defined intervals.  The plan of production a need for speed and redundancy of the RAID/SCSI setting.  The drive to check-in will not.  I don't know what is supported by the PERC H200 beyond two units SCSI that we have.  How would you recommend that we do that?  Should we buy two SATA drives and use them in a RAID 1 configuration as we have for SCSI drives?  All readers are saved on a Dell RD1000 disk cartridge system, in a way.  I don't know if we need RAID for this disk to archive, because it will be backed up regularly.  Others grow here to use an external USB drive for archiving, due to their very low cost.

    Thanks for your suggestions, you can offer.

    Hello.

    Support-T110 II up to 6 hard drives. It wouldn't hurt to implement these drives in RAID 1 or RAID 5 (for more than 2 disks) configuration just in case of failure before the archive is saved. If your archive is not so important, you can set the drives in RAID 0.

  • PowerEdge T110 ii requirements RAID1

    Hi all!

    We have 110 PET ii server with Windows server 2012 Foundation running on it. It currently has a single 1 TB harddrive. Being a complete novice (like the collection of responses to someone), could you please help me by answering to these questions:

    (1) how to identify if the my server is able RAID1?

    know where to look if it has the controller (built-in or external) installed RAID card and related control software?

    What happens in the BIOS should I check which tells me if my server is configurable RAID1?

    (2) what are the requirements for a RAID1 configuration?

    that is another hard drive that is needed, should be same brand and model as it is present? All the recommendations on which are found more compatible for this server.

    If the RAID controller or driver card is not present, which is the recommended that I need to buy?

    Any help will be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you!

    Hello.

    T110 servers are normally incorporated with S100 RAID controller software. It can be configured to operate as well on the RAID and no RAID mode. Check the BIOS settings SATA to confirm. You need a minimum of 2 drives to configure RAID 1; so you will need a drive hard extra preference of the similar specifications as the 1 TB one. Other controllers recommended are H200 which is hardware controller and S300 which is controller software.

Maybe you are looking for
