ACU did not detect controller

[Provencher Philippe]

I setup a Raid-1 array with embedded Adaptec SATA Raid controller. But the ACU does not detect the raid controller.

I can't boot from Hard drive 2 and I have no way of testing if it mirror itself correctly.

Is there any other manager I can use to manage the raid array live from Windows 2003 server.

Thanks

hi

which server are you talking about?

in order to provide a link for that utility for Embedded SATA controllers since ACU only support Smart array controllers

As Karlo noticed, ACU detects only SA controllers, so you need:

Karlo is right.....the embedded controller in this server is not a Smart Array controller. The embedded storage in this server is an Adaptec controller.

Thanks then what do i do if the first disk crashes and I want to boot from the second disk. Do I have to reboot the server, enter the raid array config (press F8 at boot up) remove the raid array and boot from the second disk ?

And then when I receive the spare disk, reboot the server and create the array again.

Thanks for your help.
