Hi All,
We have a ProLiant DL760 (OS: Windows 2000 server) server with 14 disk cage(SW4214) attached through SmartArray 5300 controller. Disk cage has a 8 disk array (RAID 5 with spare) which has 2 logical drives. Toda'y morning server lost this 2 logical drives, and during restart we see following POST message:
1779-Drive Array Replacement Drive(s) detected OR Previously failed drive(s) now appear to be operational:
SCSI Port 4: SCSI IDs: 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8
(SW4214 bays: 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8)
Logical drive(s) disable due to possible data loss.
Select "F1" to disable logical drives
Select "F2" to accept data loss and re-enable logical drive(s)
In the Windows Device Manager we see both logical drives, but in the disk management we didn't seen anything.
Events from Windows Event Viewer you can see in attachment.
Where is a problem here? Is it controller bug or HDD bug?
Is the any ways to enable those logical drives, or get data from those drives?
Best regards,
Max
