After creating RAID 5 for hard disks, CIMC shows Modrate fault

Dear all,
There are two UCS servers which the model is C240 M3
When I created RAID 5 for hard disks, CIMC shows Modrate fault.
The warring message is
storage virtual drive 0 degraded: please check the storage controller, or reseat the storage drive ucs
anybody has idea for this case? Thank you!

Is it an solution? Thank you!
The warning message appears if you do not have a Battery BAckup Unit Instllated on the server. I just worked with Cisco TAC and following is the solution.:
1. Launch KVM Console of the server
2. Power Cycle the Server
3. When LSI RAID configuration window displays, press CTRL+H and start the RAID Configuration Utility.
4. Click on Virtual Drive. Example Virtual Drive 0.
5. Change Default Write Mode to "Write Through" and click "Change"
6. Press "Yes" to take the effect.
7. Exit from RAID Configuration Utility nad restart the server.

You should just be able to erase it using Disk Utiilty. I did with my 8Gb.
If not I have a USB deep format tool, but it only works with Windows: http://tinyurl.com/mwor6s9
You can download that and unzip it, then run it on a PC to fully erase and format the flash drive. Format it in FAT, and then the Mac will read and mount it so you cna once again format it with HFS extended for Mac use.

POV-After creating Tcode for a table SM30 I want F4 Help here

Hi All,
After creating Tcode for a table, When I am trying to give table entries thro' this Tcode, I want F4 help for those fields. Apart form assigning "Fixed values" in Domain level how can I achieve this.
Points Assured.
Regards,
Suresh

Hi,
You need to create search helps based on this table for each filed or one for all the fields with proper import and export paramters. Or else you can give check table entries for each of the table fields for which you need the F4 help. Check table us assigned to a field using the Foriegn key assignment.

Getting new hard disks to show up?

I have installed Solaris 10 to my primary hard disk. The OS is up and running fine as far as I can tell. I have also added two three more hard disks (250GB PATA IDE drives). The BIOS during bootup sees the drives just fine. (Even the Solaris install saw them...). When I'm in the CDE GUI I can't get the OS to see the extra 3 drives.
I've tried going into the Solaris Management Console 2.1 and then I choose "This Computer" on the "Open Toolbox" dialog. From there I go to the "Storage" --> "Disks" and I get an error message "Attempt to get a list of all Disks failed with unexpected CIM error: CIM_ERR_FAILED"
Help! Am I just looking in the wrong spot? What do I need to do to get the 3 additional disks to show up? (I'm trying to get them to show up so I can setup a ZFS raid...)

jebilbrey:
With all due respect; none of the various *nix are particularly well suited to "point and click" system administration. One of their most redeeming qualitites (to me) is that you learn the innards of the system and moving icons around isn't that ;)
Now, as for the format command; as root you type in "format" from the command prompt. If you see them with that command you select the disk you want to partition (it will have a number assigned). From there you select part (I think that's it) then you assign the size for each slice of the disk with the exception of slice 2 which is the whole drive from block 0 to block n.
Once you've laid out the disk with the partitions you want you use the "label" option to write the partition table to the disk.
If you are going to mount filesystems; you have to use newfs on the partitions you created; then mount them up.
As I said; not exactly "point and click" system administration.
Cheers,

Hard Disk not showing up on desktop

I have a MacPro with 2 hard disks (the system disk and a RAID set for storage). After a restart of the machine this afternoon the system disk shows up on the desktop and in Finder, but the RAID set doesn't. It is clearly mounted, since it can be accessed through a Parallels share, and Disk Utility says it is mounted, but I can't see it. Any ideas why this would happen all of a sudden?
The shutdown, BTW, was to install Build 5160 of Parallels, since I've found that a shutdown prior to installing a Parallels upgrade generally seems to minimize problems with the install - maybe that backfired on me this time for some reason.
BTW, I posted this on the MacPro forum, but received no response, probably because it really belonged here
thanks...Bob

I suspect it is the same deal as happens when you "poof" a drive on purpose from the Sidebar: other drives remain but the "poofed" one has to be readded--just go to Finder Preferences, click the toolbar icon in the Preferences for Sidebar, you'll probably see a "-" instead of the regular check mark, just recheck the box.

PS--I see a restart fixed it. Evidently the plist wasn't actually changed (as it is when one deliberately removes a drive), so a restart caused Finder to consult the original plist file. Glad to know the fix works on RAID (BTW, you are the first person who has had their RAID become invisible. Congrats!)

After I connected my hard disk to a friend's windows system all my files have been converted to .ink files and do not open....what do i do? They had important content

after connecting my hard disk to a windows laptop all my files have somehow converted to .ink files and are not accessible.....what do i do?

What do you mean by "all files", surely only one category of files got their default open program changed.
Choose the affected files, right click on an individual file, and "open with",...change to default program.
For a group, right click > show info > open with > change ALL
If more than one group of files has had its default opening program changed, a time machine roll-back would be the easy option. Do you have a TM backup?

MacBook Pro hard disk upgrade shows question mark folder

I recently bought a 1TB hard disk for my teenaged daughter's MacBook Pro.
I formatted it, used Carbon Copy Cloner to clone the existing drive. I even made sure to create the recovery partition.
I restarted while holding the option key and chose the new drive. It booted fine so I checked in System Preferences to make sure it was selected as the boot device.
I opened the case and swapped the drives. Put it back together and restarted only to see the question mark folder!
I tried booting while holding the option key and now I get the choose a network prompt.
I am desperate and hate the thought of disappointing my daughter. It used to be that I was her hero who could fix anything now I'm the guy who asks too many questions and doesn't put enough money on her debit card. Granted she busts her butt getting awesome grades and I was upgrading her drive so she could continue her video yearbook for her school. So I shouldn't complain but it would be great to be her hero again.
BTW, I am not a newbie to the tech world but I don't do nearly as much in the Apple arena as I do in the PC world. Then again I've been a senior tech in the industry sine before IBM had a PC. In fact, my first real work was on a 6502 processor that used the same machine code as the Rage of the day, the Apple ][. All that to say I usually can find my way around a problem but this one has me stumped.
I appreciate any assistance offered.
Thanks,
Thom

I tried to reboot with the option, command P. And R keys pressed. I heard the ding several times it still showed the question mark! I also tried the shift option and it only displayed the network selection. Also I tried to press C so I could boot from USB and it didn't work either.
If I cannot get this to work I fear my only other choice is to use a FireWire enclosure. This isn't a good option as my daughter does mostly movie work and iMovie has this terrible "feature" that forces all movies to be stored in one place. It sure would be handy if it allowed movie projects to set the storage location individually. I suppose I could simply move all the movies to the drive and try to find a way to point all iMovie projects to the external drive.
Unfortunately, my daughter is one of those Mac users who isn't savvy enough to use anything but the default settings. Heck I've tried to explain to her that she ought to get rid of the big files once she has done her work. That's why her drive is always full.

External Hard Disk not showing up on Finder

Hi
My HP Pocket Media Drive (USB), when plugged into my MacBook, does not show up on the Finder, even though it shows up on System Profiler. It only shows up on Disk Utility in certain occasions (such as after shutting down and starting up again). I have checked my Finder preferences, that external hard drives are shown on desktop.
I have tried resetting my PRAM and SMC too, but I still can't access the hard disk.
Any help will be appreciated.

On the chance that your Mac has a phantom folder in its Volumes folder, with that external drive not mounted, invoke the Finder menu option Go > Go to Folder. Enter "/Volumes" (without the quotes) in the field and click "Go". In the resulting window if you see anything with a name that resembles your external drive, trash it.
Anyone know how I can have the external hard disk automatically mount onto my desktop (and thereby bypass the need for several click-thru’s via the finder window)?
Once you're able to mount that external drive, open the Accounts panel of System Preferences and click on the lock in the corner to authenticate if needed. Select your account on the left, then the "Login Items" tab. Drag the mounted disk icon into the window then close System Preferences. That disk should now mount when you log in. A Finder window will open, but you can close that manually. If that bothers you sufficiently, if you search these discussion groups you may be able to find threads that discuss how to work around that.

RAID Admin and Disk Utility show different sizes

Hello all,
I have tried searching through these forums for a resolution to this, but did not really find one. Here is my situation:
I have an XServe Dual G4 in a branch office. It has attached to it an XServe RAID. Last week, when I was down working in the office I added a new drive to the RAID. The lower channel on the RAID had 4 172GB drives in it, and I added a 5th and and told RAID admin to resize the RAID.
The next day, the RAID was finished resizing. RAID admin was reporting that the array was now 690GB. However, after rebooting the server and RAID multiple times, Disk Utility in OS X is still showing that the Volume on the RAID is only 517GB.
So, I have a couple of questions:
1. How is it possible that by adding a 172GB drive to a RAID 5 array that was about 520GB I ended up with an array that is 690 GB? That would imply that there is no parity (since 690 - 520 = 170 and the drive I added in was 172GB).
2. How do I get the server to see the additional space? The server is at the newest version of the OS and the RAID it as the newest version of the firmware.
Please help.
Mac OS X (10.4.8)

I've run into the same issue with a newer PPC XServe. However, after I tried to reformat, I still only show up with the orginal size, and not the new size, even after I restarted the server and XRAID.
Did you have any success with your reformat?

Can't enter windows 7 after I added 2nd hard disk

Bought a Thinkpad Serial ATA Hard Drive Bay Adapter (Lenovo 40Y8725) and a Hitachi 500G hard drive for my T61, the capacity now is increased to 820G.
But the problem is I can't boot my laptop!! Every time I restart my laptop, before I can enter the system(window 7), it shows a blue screen with an error code: "IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL".
Several things I tried:
1, If I take off the bay adapter, everything becomes fine. And after I enter the system, insert the bay adapter, the new 500G hard disk can be recognized normally. (actually, this is what I have to do now if I want to reboot...)
2, Put the original 320G hard disk to the bay adapter and leave its original position (internal bay) empty, everything is fine
3, If now put 500G hard disk to the empty position (320G is still in bay adapter), problem again
So, it seems the adapter bay and both two hard disks should be ok by themselves, and the problem only appears when I plug them together to my laptop. My roommate also bought a bay adapter, and it works totally well on his T400 and windows 7...
Thanks a lot in advance!

Well, you should never trust a solution from someone who writes Speed Spectrum Clocking when in fact it is Spread Spectrum Clocking. However, the only reason I mentioned it at all is that you have to choose a setting in order to save the Max Transfer Speed setting.
They're both Hitachi drives? (It would seem so if you were able to use the tool on both drives.)
If you're not using a hard drive caddy on the drive in the Ultrabay, I would place a piece of insulation between the bare drive and the hard drive adapter. Some people use a sheet of plastic. I prefer a note card as it provides a cool visual indicator should the drive reach a temperature of 451 F.
I might have to retire this solution if it doesn't start to produce better results.
It the insulation suggestion doesn't help, I would post back with the product number of your T61 and any upgrades you have made.

Re: After Restoring to New Hard Disk, No Windows Update - a Fix

How about this one? I bought a Toshiba Laptop while living for some time in the U.S. Admittedly I was stupid not to create the reinstall disk that Toshiba suggested I create when I bought the computer. So I call them to order a new one after installing a new hard drive. Toshiba USA does not accept a Canadian VISA card (that works everywhere else!) and Toshiba Canada "doesn't carry" the US version and therefore cannot supply me with one. Microsoft claims it's out of their hands. I have a legitimate activation key that only works if I use a Toshiba install disk. I tried installing a regular retail version that has no discernible difference to Toshiba's OEM install and I am getting the "This is not a genuine copy" error message because I am using an OEM key on a retail install. Microsoft's solution is to buy a retail version for $149 CDN even though I own it already. Toshiba offers their apologies for my inconvenience and shrugs with perplexity. Other than the obvious (paying $149 for a new version, which I flat out WILL NOT do) any other intelligent solutions? I will destroy this computer and never buy a Toshiba product again before I will pay $149 for a new OS.

I have a legitimate activation key that only works if I use a Toshiba install disk
Wrong right there. When you restore the hard disk to its original out-of-the-box contents using Toshiba recovery discs, no key is necessary. That version of Windows is preactivated.
You cannot obtain an Windows installation disc from Toshiba.
I tried installing a regular retail version that has no discernible difference to Toshiba's OEM install and I am getting the "This is not a genuine copy" error message because I am using an OEM key on a retail install.
You haven't disclosed the model of your computer. You already paid for the version of Windows that came with it. If you do this right, Microsoft will give you a key to activate that version.
Which computer?

Options for hard disk upgrade on my MBP 15" (late 2007 - Santa Rosa)

I suspect this is a common question here in the discussions forum, judging by the similar questions posed by other members.
I am however, half-way into my research on hard disk options for that matter and would like to ask some specific questions in order to ensure that my upgrade is not problematic (I have been quite happy with my MBP so far :-))
The model I have is the A1226 (Intel Core Duo, 2.2Ghz, 4GBs. This currently has the 111.79GB Fujitsu MHW2120BH hard disk, which is almost full now; hence, the need for an upgrade.
I quite fancy the WD Scorpio Blacks, particularly the 500GB ones, even though the 320GB ones will also do to a lesser extent. My questions on this brand/type are:
(1) Will it have an impact on the heat generated inside the Macbook (vs. my current situation)?
(2) Will it have an impact in the battery consumption (vs. my current situation)?
(3) Will there be an issue with the SATA speed? My MBP supports 1.5GB/s while this drive operates at 3GB/s.
(4) If I opt for the respective model with the free fall sensor, will this function work with my MB? (NB: Not sure if relevant, but the System Profiler reports: Suddem Motion Sensor: State = Enabled)
My aim is to clean up my current disc, upgrade it to the new bigger one and then re-install Mac OS X Leopard, upgrade to Snow Leopard and then re-install all apps. All files are backed up anyway with TimeMachine, so no issue there. If you can think of any potential issue with the upgrade and what I intend to do further after, please share it.
The machine is out of warranty - but that doesn't mean that I want to cause damage here...
Thanks.

(5) What other safe options are there for upgrade drives with a 500GB capacity?
For loading/unloading heads, I'm not sure one model/brand has been found to be better than another.
Can I avoid this problem if I get the Scorpio Black 500GB w/o the free fall sensor? (Model: WD5000BEKT on http://www.wdc.com/en/products/products.asp?driveid=854).
The SMS conflict, yes.
In such a case, will Apple's Sudden Motion Sensor work?
Yes.
Or to paraphrase, can SMS park the heads of a WD hard disk w/o the free fall sensor?
Yes, that is what it was developed for. Since that time, more and more HD manufacturers have incorporated it into the HD itself. There are two schools of thought on this: 1. The "SMS" built in to a HD is more properly "mated" to the HD mechanism itself, so could save a nanosecond or two engaging. 2. In the nanoseconds it takes to engage, a nanosecond here or there is not going to matter. Personally, I believe the latter. There is no need for an "SMS" enabled HD in an SMS enabled Mac. I'm sure some others believe differently.
(NB: Interesting that the issues with SMS and the WD Scorpio have been documented in Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SuddenMotionSensor).
Ah, good old wiki. I hadn't seen that before. Thanks for sharing.
No mention there of whether it is applicable to the drives with the free fall sensor or the ones w/o it (or even both).
It actually does state it is in reference to the "aftermarket hard drives already equipped with anti-shock features." That writeup is dated however, as I believe there are more issues reported with Seagate these days.

How do you query bios for hard disk drives?

Is there any way to query the bios to find out the interupt address (i.e. 80x) of all the attached hard disks?
Only I need to manually figure it out for installing grub or lilo.

If you have a working Linux system installed you can do lspci -v, but it sounds like you are just installing, so you can't do this. Why do you need to know the interrupts for your hard drives for GRUB/LILO? I don't recall ever having to know this information to install either LILO or GRUB or even the FreeBSD boot loader.
