Re: Problem installing raid 1 drives into a new server
If not, run the Netraid Configuration Utility and update the Raid configuration from the disks.
Obviously, you musn't initialise the disks.

Re: Problem installing raid 1 drives into a new server
I think that you only need to use the configuration that is on the disks. To do this you should first clear the Netraid's NVRam configuration.
Best do this by ;
a) remove the disks.
b) Enter the config utility at startup and choose Configure .. View/Add/Delete Configuration .. Clear Configuration. Confirm changes. Esc until Exit CTRL ALT DEL to restart.
c) Re-insert the disks.
d) At startup the Netraid will show no logical drives configured and will prompt you to enter the config utility.
e) Choose Configure .. View/Add/Delete Config again and then View Disk Configuration.
The disks should be showing Online.
f) Press F10 to configure. Logical drives should show Raid 1.
Save the configuration. Esc till exit and re-start.
This SHOULD allow your Netserver to start properly.

Re: Problem installing raid 1 drives into a new server
The scenario is a good one, forcing the netraid to read the config info from the disks themselves and the rest of your plan should work.
Drema, are you sure the disk still boot on the other machine? The slots you put the HDDs in make no difference first of all. Second, so long as the netraid is the boot device (as opposed to onboard SCSI or the like) the drives should boot provided the netraid has the correct config, as gerarde presented.
This may seem simplistic, but were the drives software mirrored with the OS rather than hardware mirrored with the raid controller?
It sounds to me like either your new netraid is not configured correctly (most logical explanation) and the steps you say you are taking are not actually what is being done...or the config on the other machine is different than you think.
The only other explanation would be a hardware failure.
