I am facing problem of rebuild in external storage. RAID 5 configured on 5 hard drives (SLOT 1, 2, 3, 4 ,5 and slot 11 as spare)

Hi,

According to the ADU report attached:

Logical Drive 3 Warning Logical drive state: The logical drive is queued for rebuilding
Logical Drive 4 Warning Logical drive state: The logical drive is queued for rebuilding

Rebuild Aborted From Read Error:
[ SATA Array C ] â [ Logical Drive 4 ]
[ SATA Array B ] â [ Logical Drive 3 ]

Read Errors on Drives:
Physical Drive 2E:1:2
Physical Drive 2E:1:7
Physical Drive 2E:1:9

Timeout Errors on Drives:
Physical Drive 2E:1:6
Physical Drive 2E:1:9
Physical Drive 2E:1:10
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Until the read errors or timeout errors are not fixed the rebuild will not happen.

Its better to log another call with HP support and get the latest ADU log analyzed.

Thanks
