HPE StoreVirtual Rebuild after 3 failed disks

[AndrewMarlow]

Hello

I have a StoreVirtual 4530 that has had 3 failed disks. As such all data is lost and there is nothing left but to rebuild from base up. This was part of a raid pair and the other one is still working fortunatly. 

I get i need to rebuild the OS side but for the life of me i can't find any instructions on how to do this. Are there any? Were any published or is this one of the senareos that HP will only support over the phone with a support contract? we were looking to replace the devices but this may take some time.

All were purchased before my time so i presume these came from HPE pre installed and ready to rock. so i dont think we have media or instructions for the full rebuild.

any advice greatly received.

OK

i feel stupid now. I had the Quick Restore DVD but it must have been a dodgy download or burn. just downloaded a new version and now it is booting up asking for the licence file on USB. Now all i need to do is see if i can get that in the correct format on a usb stick...
