Greetings,
I'm running into a problem that has appeared on the forums before, but without a clear answer in some regards.
.
I have a 36Gb Seagate Cheetah Fibre Channel Drive that I want to add to a FC10. For various reasons, I need to do a mediainit on the drive, but the mediainit fails because the bytes per sector is 520 instead of 512.
.
The Univ of Idaho had a similar problem last year, and their last message said they had received a program from HP to correct the problem. Anyone know what the program is and how to get it??
.
Yes, I know that the 520 bytes per sector probably means it's set for virtual array use, but I need to reset it for 512.
.
Any and all help is greatly appreciated.
.
Regards,
Paul Middleton

Paul,
if you would have Command View for disk systems http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/Document.jsp?objectID=lpg35179&locale=en_US&taskId=115&prodSeriesId=81148&prodTypeId=12169 then there's a command JBODfmt which formats individual disk into 512 bytes per sector.
Although manual http://h200002.www2.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/lpg29284/lpg29284.pdf does not clearly say that FC10 is supported by this CV, there're some examples in it
