Hardware RAID is disabled via NVRAM Controller setting
I have server ML150 G6. Last week, Windows 2003 Server gives a message to reboot the server. After rebooting server didn't load the OS. At startup, where it detects the Controller P410i, it gives message "Hardware RAID support is disabled via NVRAM Configuration Setting".
In ACU, its not showing any logical drives (no RAID exists).
There are five HDDs of 450GB, RAID1+0 on two drives and RAID five on three drives.
Now its not showing any RAID.
Is there any way to recover the RAID?
Secondly, any idea about the error "Hardware RAID support is disabled via NVRAM Configuration Setting".
Thanks

Re: Hardware RAID is disabled via NVRAM Controller setting
The ML150 G6 comes standard with an embedded controller that can be configured in NVRAM to support RAID. The Smart Array P410 is configured when it's BIOS shows up during POST. If your drives are on the P410 you probably need to change the boot controller order in NVRAM and place the P410 before the embedded controller.

Re: Hardware RAID is disabled via NVRAM Controller setting
There is no embedded controller on the server and on POST, it detects only one controller and where it detects the Controller it displays version as Smart Array Controller P410i with 256MB cache and also shows "0 Logical Drives".
Secondly, on Server BIOS there is no option to enable or disable NVRAM.
One more thing, what if I replace the Controller?
Thanks

Re: Hardware RAID is disabled via NVRAM Controller setting
So check out the boot order as suggested above.

Re: Hardware RAID is disabled via NVRAM Controller setting
I forgot the URL that shows the above facts about the B110i and P410.http://h18004.www1.hp.com/products/quickspecs/13249_na/13249_na.html

Re: Hardware RAID is disabled via NVRAM Controller setting
Thanks for the link.
As I have said earlier that during post it only detects one Controller and i.e. P410i (not B110i). I think it is possible that there is no embedded controller in performance model.

Re: Hardware RAID is disabled via NVRAM Controller setting
All you have to do is get in the BIOS and check. That's not hard to do on a server that does not even boot up.

Re: Hardware RAID is disabled via NVRAM Controller setting
Does anyone remember what the resolution was for the "raid support is disabled in NVRAM controller settings"?
