Raid - how do I???

2003-05-27 Thread vizion communication
Hi

I could do with some help from someone who is an experienced
hand.

I have a compaq Proliant 5500 quad processor. This system
includes the proliant raid which has four physical drives
(each of 18.2G) on ida0 which are configured as three
devices idad0, idad1  idad2.

I have a reported soft error on ida0. One of the physical
drives has its disk drive light showing red. All seems well
with the data so whatever the cause the raid is obviously
doing its job!.

Can anyone please tell me what steps I should now undertake
or direct me to an appropriate information source.

Please let me know if you need any more information.

Thanks

This most certianly means that the drive is dead.
If you loce another, you will lose your data.

Power down the system, replace the drive and power on again.
The bios will inform you that the disk has been replaced and it will ask you
to hit f1 to rebuild.
It will take a while but all should be rebuilt without the OS knowing about
it

I'm currenty adding support to the driver to report this properly...
If you want to try the new version of the driver email me privatly...

It's not really ready for prod tho...
