Hello,
i have HP G6, Problem I face is just i remove a disk from server on RAID5 configuration and re insurt it. Now its not booting.
i have options: "F1" to continue with logical drives disabled.
"F2" to accept data loss and to re-enable logical drives.
Is it safe to hit F2 as my server just hold SQL Server database (more like data storage server). Not involve in any runtime applications or so.
Please guide
Thanks all
Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: HP G6 Server Boot Issue
Your images are not visible.
Is it really a RAID5?
Consider to hit F2, otherwise it stays disabled without access to the logical drive.
Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.

SolutionObviously you pulled 2 drives (bay 3 and 4), hence the logical drive is now disabled.
Press F2 now to re-enable them.
Hope this helps!

Torsten.
