logical drive failed / MSA30 / smartArray 5300

EricPH — Thu, 29 Oct 2009 14:32:01 GMT

Hello all,
My configuration
an ES47 running Tru64 connected to a MSA30 with a raid 1 logical Drive.
What happened :
Power failure on the entire rack.
My problem :
The logical drive is failed and can't be mounted.

2 messages on ACU-XE :
1) (yellow) #771 current array has valid data stored in memory. The data will be written to the drives once the controller becomes idle
and
2) (red) #271 the current array controller has a failed logical drive.
logical drive 1 ( Raid 1+0 in array A) has failed and cannot beused. All data on this logical drive has been lost. etc...

Is it true ? I was believing that using such a hardware could be more useful...

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

The clue is to access ORCA.
On the console :
P00>> init
P00>> show bios
P00>> run bios pya0
=> orca
Type F2 to accept data loss

reboot
