"Drive not ready" can't boot the Sun Enterprise 250 Server 400MHz

Hi,
Because I can't ping it and got no response on the console, so I had to reboot the E250 server.
When I reboot SUN E250, I got the following message on the console and then it stops.

You either have a mechanically or electronically failed disk drive or else your Operating System (I an presuming it is Solaris on that SPARC system) is completely mucked up.
If it is the OS at issue, you will need to install everything fresh.
If it is the 18GB disk drive, you will need to replace it and install everything fresh.
Either way, at some point you will have to go get your OS installation media and install everything fresh. The solution is not that difficult to understand.

  • Sun Enterprise 250 Server; memory upgrade

    Dear Gurus
    Please let me know , if we can upgrade E250 memory from 1GB to 2GB and adding 100GB space.
    Our hardware vendor is suggesting to replace the server as this is an EOL ( End of Life ) Server and can't upgrade the memory or disk.
    Anybody have any clue?

    Hello Krishna,
    the E250 is extendible upto 2 GB of RAM (16 modules each 128MB). If your system uses 16 modules 64MB each (1GB), all modules must be replaced with 128MB modules.
    Even if the higher capacity (73 or 146GB) disks aren't listed in the E250 page of the Sun System Handbook they might work (but won't use the the Ultra160/Ultra320 mode, that means no increased thruput). If the system is under service contract, extending the system with these disks might invalidate the service contract. If the system isn't under service contract talk with the dealer or directly Sun about a trial.
    The followup system of the E250 was the Fire V250 (upto 8 internal disks!), which went EOL in 09/05. The current followup is the Fire V240 (only upto 4 internal disks).
    Buying or leasing a newer system is more expensive, but offers much higher performance (faster disks and much faster cpus). I would suggest to call Sun, probably you can Trade-In the system.

    I've got the exact same issue with an Ultra 60 on which I'm attempting to install Solaris 9. I've tried replacing the drive, replacing the CD, using the external SCSI connection and nothing works. Each time I attempt a boot cdrom I get the following error:

    probe-scsi-all shows that my drive is being recognized.
    What am I doing wrong?
    Thanks in advance for any assistance anyone can provide.

  • VXI-850pc controller fails boot. Drive not ready, light on continuous​ly.

    I have a VXI-850pc slot-0 controller that won't boot properly.  Basically, when turned on:
       1) the drive light is continuously lit, color - amber.
       2) screen displays: Drive not ready, insert BOOT diskette in A:, Press any key when ready
    Has the hard drive crashed?  Any suggestions?
    Thank you for your help!
    Jason

    Jason,
    You deffinantly are having a HDD problem. It has either failed, the boot sector is corrupt. I would recommend using a boot disk to get into windows and run a scan of your HDD to test if it is okay. If the disk has failed, it is fairly striaght forward to replace and I can advise you on that process if you run into any snags.

  • I'm getting the grey screen during start up and can't boot the computer. I did a cmnd R but worried it would automatically wipe my hard drive and reinstall OS.  Is there a risk at cmnd R will result in wiped HD without me actively making that choice?

    I'm getting the grey screen during start up and can't boot the computer - MacBook Pro with lion.
    I did a command r after doing some research but got nervous that it would automatically wipe my hard drive and reinstall OS.
    I was nervous because it asked me for language for software use before any options were presented (such as repair via disk utility). It looked similar to an OS install.So I powered off....Is there a risk at command r will result in wiped HD without me actively making that choice?

    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions - Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
    Reinstall Mountain Lion or Mavericks
    OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
         Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is
                    three times faster than wireless.

  • Can I boot the 380e bios ugrade from the cd drive rather than the floppy disk?

    Can I boot the 380e bios upgrade from the cd drive rather than the floppy disk? I don't have any floppies around and I don't want to order them online just for this one task. The bios disk images are here. http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/detail.page?LegacyDocID=DSHY-46AKPY

    I'm sorry that I can't answer your CD vs diskette question, but you mention updating your 380E BIOS and the link you've included is for the 390E.

  • Solaris 8 on netra T1 error - drive not ready

    Hi I am hoping someone can help shed light on a problem we have encountered. I inherited a couple of very old netra t1 with solaris 8 on them.  We had a major power outage whcih resulted in an issue with this server coming backup.  On first looking at it i was able to get into the server via lom command prompt, i ran the power down command to gracefully shutdown and reboot but on starting backup the server is reporting 'drive not ready' and just hangs at this point.
    apologies but i am a solaris novice, any help would be much appreciated. I am hoping this is something trivial....
    thanks.

    Just to update we suffered another power outage and returned to look at hte server to find different error messages appearing, this time the server was giving me the option to try and boot or go into single user mode, which i did and ran the metastat and got the following:-

  • My iMac Seagate 1T hard drive crashed. I replaced it with a Western Digital 1T hard drive. Where can I get the Lion OS?

    My iMac Seagate 1T hard drive crashed. I replaced it with a Western Digital 1T hard drive. Where can I get the Lion OS?
    The iMac comes up with a ? in a folder, even after starting with Option/Command/R keys pressed.
    Please help.

    Call Apple to purchase replacement discs or order a copy of Snow Leopard from Apple's Online Store. Follow these instructions:
    Drive Preparation and Install Snow Leopard
    1. Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button.  When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
    2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area.  If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing.  SMART info will not be reported  on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Security button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
    7. When completed quit DU and return to the installer. Install Snow Leopard. Once you boot from Snow Leopard you should open Software Update and install all the available updates required. After you complete this and restart the computer open the App Store application in the Dock or Applications folder.
    8. Sign into the App Store with your Apple ID and password. Purchase and download Lion.
    9. After Lion's installer downloads, install Lion.

  • Windows - Drive Not Ready - isFile()

    When checking to see if a file [using isFile() ] exists on a drive I get this dialog error message in Windows XP:
    Windows - Drive Not Ready
    Exception Processing Message c00000a3Parameters 75b6bf7c 75b6bf7c 75b6bf7c
    I get this message if there is no media in the drive such as if I make the check on an empty floppy drive.
    Is there any way to check if their is a media in the floppy drive before deciding to check if there is a certain file on it with isFile()?
    Trying to catch the error does not seem to work - the error seems to originate from somewhere in the OS rather than from java.
    How do I get rid of this error message? I have upgraded to JDK 1.5 - the problem did not occur in JDK 1.2 so somehow that earlier version was able to avoid this problem.
    This is part of the code:
    String iniFileName = DEFAULTINIFILENAME;
    File[] possibleRoots = getAllPossibleRoots(); // Mostly a call to File.listRoots() with some fixes
    File possibleIniFile = null;
    Vector allFoundIniFiles = new Vector();
    for (int possibleLocationNo = 0 ; possibleLocationNo < possibleRoots.length ; possibleLocationNo++) {
    possibleIniFile = new File(possibleRoots[possibleLocationNo], File.separator + iniFileName); if (possibleIniFile.isFile()) {
    allFoundIniFiles.add(possibleIniFile);
    } // if
    } // for

    This should run on its own - just compile it and run it on Windows XP - using jdk 1.5 for instance. I checked on jdk 1.4 and it also gave the error.
    The error is that this dialog window appears:

  • "Drive not ready" message when copying files to iPod

    I have had my iPod since 2004, and no problems, until recently. After updating most recent Updater, and restoring my iPod, I went to repopulate with my music files on a hard drive, and get this annoying "Drive not ready; door is open" message. It gives me opportunity to "cancel, retry, continue", but nothing works. Have restored several times now, and always the same thing. It will let me copy a certain amount of songs (about 500 or so) and then the message. I'm using a USB 2.0, and Apple dock connector, and have tried all ports available - so I know its not a connectivity issue. Is anyone else having this trouble after installing latest Updater? Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

    hi
    I'm having exacly the same problem. I have removed and updated everything I can think of to try to resolve this, including removing anti virus software. I can update to about 420 songs, and bang, the ipod / itunes / computer freezes. It seems that finding another computer to check whether it's the ipod or my home computer is the next option. Life is too short for this. My old MD was way less problimatic

  • Disk drive not ready

    have you check disk alias ?
    exemple
    disk /pci@400/pci@0/pci@8/scsi@0/sd@0,0
    for disk0 booting.
    I suggest you do the following:
    ok show-disks
    a) /sbus@7,0/SUNW,fas@3,8800000/sd
    b) /sbus@3,0/SUNW,fas@3,8800000/sd
    q) NO SELECTION
    Enter Selection, q to quit: a
    /sbus@7,0/SUNW,fas@3,8800000/sd has been selected.
    Type ^Y ( Control-Y ) to insert it in the command line.
    e.g. ok nvalias mydev ^Y
    for creating devalias mydev for
    /sbus@7,0/SUNW,fas@3,8800000/sd
    {0} ok nvalias mydisk /sbus@7,0/SUNW,fas@3,8800000/sd@c,0
    ok setenv boot-device mydisk
    ok reset
    I hope I helped you

  • IPOD HELP!!!  receiving 'Drive not ready: door open' message

    My 3rd gen Ipod is on its last legs. For the past few months half the music on the ipod would freeze the ipod. Now ive tried restoring, resetting, reinstalling, etc etc... the thing is a paper weight. Every time i try to load new music on it, it A) freezes itunes and B) gives me a message saying, "drive not ready, door open" or somthing like that. What can i do? Anyone have this happen before and is it fixable? Am i stuck on buying a new ipod? Thanks for your help!!
    Greg

    I get the same error message. 3G iPod, ever since the latest updater and iTunes came out. I've reset, restored, uninstalled, etc...
    Nothing fixes it.
    Maybe Apple wants us to buy a new iPod?
    "The drive is not ready for use; its door may be open. Please check drive \Device\Harddisk2\DR6 and make sure that a disk is inserted and that the drive door is closed"

    thanks

    I just had the same problem this morning. I believe the app server starts and if you browser directly to your app you'd get it, but the connection between the appserver and the IDE is somehow lost. An easier solution than completely reinstalling for me was to delete the .Creator folder in my home directory (C;|Documents and Setting\<username>\.Creator) and restart Creator

  • Itunes.exe - drive not ready ? door is open etc

    iPod ran out of power while uploading songs for iTunes, I have had many errors chkdsk etc since.
    The iPod now seems to be recognized and starts downloading from iTunes but after aroung 15 songs comes up with the error message about the drive being open, the whole system then freezes and crashes.
    I have updated iTunes, updated iPod, restored iPod twice, changed drive letter, ensured power to the USB hub all to no avail.
    Any clues anyone ??

    Thanks for replying Katrina
    ipod is fully powered, restored, updated and raring to go.
    Everything looks okay and it even starts updating from itunes but after a random number of tracks it stops, thinks a while and then produces the error message
    itunes.exe drive not ready
    The drive is not ready for use its door may be open please check drive I (iPod) and make sure a disk is inserted and the drive door is closed.
    I have spent 4 evenings wrestling with it and the wifes not happy!!
