Since the drives are UW SCSI and use an 80 pin connector ( Hot Pluggable
drive cages ), I guess I could connect them to a standard Ultra wide SCSI
controller with a 80 pin to 68 pin adapter, but that would be very time
consuming. However that suggestion did come to mind as a last resort.

Can't you remove the drives and wipe... or you want to leave the server
intact?

I do work for HP, but not in that division, and I'm pretty sure that
System Erase does NOT do a DOD-quality wipe.

I don't work for HP, but, I usually find the System Erase utility on the
SmartStart disk sufficient.

Subject: [ActiveDir] Recommendations for a DOD wipe of a RAID Array?
Greetings,
I am trying to use Symantecs Gdisk with a /DODWIPE option to do a
security wipe of a Compaq 7000's Raid Array, however using a dos boot
disk will not allow me to access the disk array. My work around on this
was that I created a 32 bit bootable CD-Rom using Bart's PE and I added
the server's 32bit Raid controller driver which now allows me to access
the disk array. However since it is running a 32bit OS, gdisk will not
work as it is only a 16bit program. When I try and use Symantec's Gdisk32
which will run, the /DODWIPE option is not available.
Does anyone know if Symantec has an updated version of GDISK32 that
supports a DODWIPE? Does any one have any prefered tools other then GDISK
that they can recommend that will work with my Raid Array?
Since there are some HP employees on this list, does HP have a
recommended tool they provide there customers to use on Proliant servers
before decommisioning them?
Sincerely,
Jose Medeiros
