Start from the Port of FCoE storage

If I directly attach an array of NetApp fabric using new storage interconnection FCoE ports, the blades allows SAN boot in this scenario?

Simon,

It shouldn't be a problem with that.  Assuming the initators can achieve the goal of direct attach, you should be able to SAN start your blades.  I did not set it up myself, but in theory there should be nothing preventing it.

Kind regards

Robert

    Hi, Leon,

    Always include computer make and model, please.  Thank you.

    Research in the Bios (reboot and press F1 or F2 depending on your system, check that all usb options are enabled (for example, USB legacy or support for USB 2.0 devices).)

    If there is a timeout parameter, set it to Max.

    Then, find the boot device priority section

    A USB flash drive, which is usually listed as USB - HDD, but may be listed as a removable device, will have a priority very low start.

    Rearrange the boot device priority so that the flash drive has a higher priority than the hard drive.

    Install Windows XP from USB key

    • Insert the USB key into the USB port on the computer.

    • Open the "I386" folder and find the file "Winnt.exe".

    Double-click on the "Winnt.exe" to launch a command prompt BACK to an installation of Windows XP.

    Type the path of the location of your "I386" folder in the DOS window. For example, if your USB is the letter "D" in your "My Computer" window, type "d:\i386" without the quotes and press the Enter"" key.

    Let the installation program copy the Windows XP installation files on your computer.

    Restart your computer to a command prompt. The Windows XP Setup will continue automatically.

    Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation. The program will ask you your Windows XP product key in this process.

  • In the DC series models starting from the IDE hard disk?

    In addition to above question - are you able to use sata cd rom on machines that have the ide and sata connectors and boot from the drive hard ide?

    Thanks in advance

    cpu201

    Hello:

    The last model that came standard with a HDD IDE was the d530. From the dc7100, primary hard drives are SATA, and starting with the dc7800 is not an IDE connector on the motherboard at all.

    You may be able to boot from an IDE hard drive in a dc7700 and earlier versions, but you will need to remove the optical drive to the primary IDE cable position and place it in a secondary position, and that's if you can get the cable to fit. Otherwise, a SATA optical drive must be connected to the SATA 2 port.

    The d530 starts natively on the IDE HDD and you can add a SATA optical drive to the sata port 1 and always start from the HARD disk.

  • Sometimes during random playback of music, next song starts from the Middle

    This has happened for about 2-3 months now. It is usually a rare event. Maybe its just me, but I feel that slowly becomes more frequent...

    In any case what happens is, while I'm listening to my iphone the shuffle, it starts the next song as usual, but sometimes this song will start from the middle. It's weird. It also happens when im jumping songs manually.

    -A.L.

    Start with the basic troubleshooting steps.

    First, try a simple Reset: hold down the Home and Power buttons until you see the Apple logo (10 to 20 seconds).

    If this does not help, you may need to restore your iPhone.

  • Cannot start from the CD in my Satellite P300-23F

    Hello

    I'm trying to fix the old laptop from my brother. It's a Toshiba satellite p300-23f. The laptop did not work well, so he bought another. I think he might have a problem with the HARD drive, but I'm not sure about this and want to try to format the HARD drive and reinstall the operating system.

    When I start from the disc HARD I have no problem, insiders of OS normally, and I can 'use' laptop. The problem is when I try to boot from the OS CD. I get this message "Media test failure, check cable". I know the CD works, because recently I have instaled the operating system with this CD on another computer. I know that the CD player (not sure if it is called like this, but I think you understand what I mean) also works very well, because I tried different CD and it worked.

    I've tried pressing F12 and boot from CD it and also tried to change the BIOS and put the CD in the first place, but it does not work.

    No idea what's going on? Is it possible to make it work?

    Stand by.
    When Windows is completely loaded, you can use the optical disk drive and it reads all CDs and DVDs?
    When you put your Windows Windows installation disc can see the contents of the disc in Windows Explorer?

    Maybe you can use the CD but not DVD. check it out please.

    Just to isolate the problem, try to download a new copy of Windows 7, and then try again:

    For 5 years, Microsoft made it fairly easy for users of the Windows 7 operating system to get reinstall media. If you have lost your support disc or installation retail collection; either it has been damaged or defective; You can download a copy of the edition that you have licensed from a membership site called Digital River. More recently, Microsoft ended the availability to reinstall media that you can download as a. File ISO in Digital River, which is a digital reproduction of an optical disc.

    It was particularly convenient for people who could not easily get the manufacturer's recovery media, did not want to pay the fees required to get or preferred a clean configuration without the software packaged manufacturers or even a recovery partition does not work. It's easy to use, all you had to do was reinstall and reactivate using the product key located on the certificate of authenticity and download all the drivers on the manufacturers website.

    Given that this option is no longer available, what are your options? See the article for more details:

    How to: What are my options for Windows 7 reinstall media?

    Make sure you scroll down and read the section:

    What to do if you cannot get your manufacturer recovery media, refuse to use or to buy it or the Microsoft Software Recovery Website does not work?

    Regarding problems with the computer itself, try to disconnect all nonessential equipment attached to it to see if the problem persists.

    I would also try switching around components such as modules of memory to see if the problem persists.

    I would also check to make sure that all components are mounted and installed correctly.

    Processor Intel P4 1.7Ghz
    15 GB OF RAM
    GeForce 7600GS
    320 GB IDE HARD DRIVE
    Card mother Gigabyte GA-8ITX3

    Help, please!

    P.S. noticed that 2Angel had a similar problem but no solution.

    Error code 5 - can't boot from DVD

    Some people have reported that from the installation of Windows 7 so that Windows XP/Vista is running can help with this error. Update your BIOS may also help.

    Here is a workaround that can also help:

    Hello Gene,

    Currently, there isn't a way to do. It's a great idea and we will certainly look at it later!

    Thank you

  • Organizing element does not start from the 12 EP welcome screen

    Organizing element refuses to boot from the first item welcome screen 12. I had the same problem with PSE12, which was solved by systematically starting from the taskbar. I failed to get the screen of welcome to PSE12. Ss12 and PSE12 parpadean normally also. I could produce a film without difficulty. Pluggable 8.1 Windows on an ACER Aspire 8920 32-bit with 4 GB of memory. Although having as bought PSE12 and ss12 together I only install ss12. Plug-in these Adobe products for several years.

    My catalogs are all in C:\Users\All Users\Adobe\Elements Organizer\Catalogs.

    A few considerations...

    1. How did you get your 12 elements Photoshop and first screens welcome of the 12 elements that set up

    First elements welcome screen

    2. If you open first elements 12 to the Expert workspace and click the Organizer tab at the bottom of the workspace Expert, can you open the workspace elements Organizer 12 from there? If you add multimedia/Organizer items, it works?

    3 have you tried to delete the elements Organizer 12 parameters to remedy any malfunction of the elements Organizer?

    The bootsetup: first is the HARD drive. Who can help?

    Hi, welcome to the Forums of HP!

    I understand that your office is the start of your printer, and I'd be happy to help you!

    I suggest turning off your computer and unplug the USB cable to the back of the printer. Once the printer is unplugged and turned off, please re - turning on the PC. Condition that the computer starts well, please follow this document on the updated the BIOS on the PC. Once the update is complete, please reconnect the printer (USB) and power back on. Once again, please turn off the computer and turn it back on.

    If the computer still starts at the printer, please disconnect the USB cable to the printer. Turn off the computer and turn it back on. That it starts properly, run your antivirus software to search for viruses. I also have to know product and model number of the desktop for further research.

    I would ask you re-post with the results of your troubleshooting, and I follow diligently with you!

    See you soon
