rx6600 RAID problem

[rufat]

Hi!
I"ve hp rx6600 integrity server. It has 2x72gb and 3x146gb hard disks. I want to create RAID but with HP smart Setup CD version 5.5.1 it can see only 2 hard drives - one 72gb and one 146gb.
Please, can you tell me how to create RAID on this RX6600?

[AnthonySN]

when you boot the server there will be an option to press f8 to create raid, if you are on a management console you can press shift f8

Does it run hp-ux?

Please post "ioscan -fn".

RAID creation depends on the used disk controller (SAS vs. smartarray).

[rufat]

There's no F8 option during reboot.

There was HP-UX system, i want to install Centos, but first to create RAID.

[Torsten.]

So please post


EFI> devtree

EFI> devices

and let us see.

this command show me that i have sas controller

[Torsten.]

You *always* have that sas controller, but maybe an optional P400 or similar smartarray controller.


However, you need to get the driver number from "drivers" command and use for example

drvcfg -s 22

to get into the configuration menu.

Hi, i installed HP-UX v11 on rx6600.
Before the instalation i unpluged 146 gb hard disks and left on server only 2 72 gb disks.
After the installation we have this result. Please tell me what does it show? Is there a RAID?
Thanks :)

Please attach

# ioscan -fn

as text.

I insert 5 146gb hard disks and restarted server. So now i"ve 2 72gb and 5 146gb hard disks. And here it is ioscan -fn command.
Thank you.
