SAS Predictive Failure process and how to avoid corruption Server 2012 R2

$

Product Name: DL380 G6


Operating System: Microsoft Windows Server 2008 (64-bit)

 

This may not be the area to post this and this is a solution to a problem so feel free to move this to a more enterprise area of the forums.  I had a HP Proliant DL380 G6 with a predictive hard drive failure.  I replaced the drive via the hot swap option:  CAUTION: DO NOT REPLACE A DRIVE WITH PREDICTIVE FAILURE WHILE SERVER IS OPERATIONAL.  You must shut down the server to replace drives with predicitve hard drive failures.  As a result of the hot swap, it corrupted one of my vhdx files (a 2010 Exchange Server).  The symptoms of the problem was I could no longer copy files from this RAID 5 volume to any location, the copy would consistently fail and as a result I could not backup the data.

 

SOLUTION:  Power off the server.  Replace the drive with predictive failure with a known good drive (preferrably NEW drive) and then power on the server.  The RAID rebuild should take place automatically.  Then, run a CHKDSK /R on the affected RAID volume to allow Windows to replace the bad blocks.  If all goes well, Windows should repair the drive and with any luck (as in my case) you will be able to recover your data and fire up your VM successfully.

 

The reason I am posting this is because it took me many hours of work and research to resolve this problem and I am trying to save someone else the trouble.

10gb NICs for ProLient 380's

Greetings,

We have a mix of DL380 G8's and G9's.  We were discussing adding 10GB NIC's into our infrustructure and wanted to make sure we are ording the correct part.  The interfrace will need to be SFP+.  From what I could tell, part 665249-B21 looks like the correct part that should work in both variations of servers we have. 

Just seeking confirmation before we order several of these.

Thanks much

Status from iLO Rest Doesn't Match That from hpssacli

I retrieved information for a logical drive on an HP Smart Storage Array on a ProLiant DL-380 Gen9 using the iLO Rest interface and the status returned is "warning". But if I get status for the same logical drive using hpssacli, it returns "OK". Does anyone have an idea why that might be?  Also, I retrieved Ethernet card information using the Rest interface and all the interfaces returned "disabled" but two of them were definitely enabled and functioning. Why would iLO return that?

Thanks

HP Proliant ML110 G7 Memory Error

$

I needed to replace the board of my Proliant ML110 G7 server.I mounted the new board on the server, but I'm having a little problem that I believe is some board configuration.I will explain: I installed the memories starting only with a memory in Channel 2-A.The server turned on and worked, so I installed a second memory on channel 4-B.This way the server did not turn on, turned on the system integrity led and turned on the constant beep. I did more tests with channel combinations, but with more than one memory the card works only using channels 2-A and 1-C. So, I conclude that dual channel memories are not working. I need to know if I should do any configuration to work.

The board of my HP Proliant ML110 G7 burned and I had to change it.When mounting the new board I'm having a little problem that I believe is some board configuration.I will explain: I installed the memories starting only with a memory in Channel 2-A.The server turned on and worked, so I installed a second memory on channel 4-B.This way the server did not turn on, turned on the system integrity led and turned on the constant beep.I did more testing with channel combinations, however, more than one memory only works using channels 2-A and 1-C. So, I conclude that the two channel memories are not working. I need to know if there is any configuration that should be done, I have 4 memories of 2 Gb each.

Proliant DL 380 G5 after swap rebuild and then failed

Hardware: Pro Liant dl 380 g5

OS: ESXI  5.5 Free 

Raid 5 with spare Disk 

Hello Everybody 

We had some Problems with our Pro Liant.

We had 2 Hard Disks which are shows an Error (Predictive Failure), but the System still running Fine.

Yesterday i want to check if the error comes from the Slot  Bays on the Server.

So i switched an hard drive and waiting for rebuild on the vsphere client screen.

After the rebuild everything seems normal and after few minutes it shows the same error  on another Hardrive.

So the Drives with errors are 3 and then it shows the the Raid Fails. 

Then i got the advice to restart the esxi and reenable the logic drive that may he recovering itself again.

So after i did this, the esxi shows alle hard drive in the Datastore and everything seems fine.

But when i tried to start the vm it comes an Error. And if i try to create a new storage he doesn't show any volume.

so i tried to get on the esxi console to list the volumes: 

esxcfg-volume -l

But he shows nothing.

The only Solution which comes in my mind as well as the last one is to recreate the  Array with hpsmart start. Fortunately we had made an Backup from the vm's ( methode type:  download the folder from the datastore)

I know that the Issue affectes also the vmware software. But if somebody is familar with all, any help will be great.

 best regards

Dear All,

I just bought a used ML350p for personal use, and it seems I cannot access Bios and SPP updates. It seems that there is an issue with my warranty.

Under European Law, support must be provided as long as issues on the hardware are not fixed. Can someone please explain to me how to access these updates or send me a link?

Many thanks,

Smartarray E200 Interim Recovery

HI All,

I removed a faulty HDD from an ML110 Server with a SmartArray E200 Controller (expansion card NOT the E200i) set in a RAID1. I have now plugged two new HDD drives (both larger than the previous drive) into the drive bay (one hot-plug the other cold).  Unfortunately, no matter what I try they both come up with Interim Recovery in the ACU.

Now the new drive says it is bad or missing?

Any help out there?

Cheers

Good morning ,  it is possible I need to install a new SMART ARRAY P400 card  , but I would need to create a RAID1 configuration again because it is a new card , I am going to use F8 ORCA procedure , please  does someone know this procedure to create a RAID 1 again ? 

I would install the card into PCIe slot , then boot the server ,  I hope the server identifies the Smart Array Controller , then F8 and create the RAID1 configuration , the SAS disks already exist , 

Is there any problem with the information into the disks ? 

Thanks for your support

Best Regards

Ricardo
