Drives say "not installed" in RAID Admin on lower controller

hi all,
I'm trying to re-establish connection to an Xserve RAID which has been in storage for some time. I can see all the drives and the RAID array and its data on the upper controller no problem (using RAID admin). However the three drives on the lower controller all show a red status light, and RAID Admin actually says "not installed" for each of the three drives.
Its critical i get access to the data on these drives. Its very unlikely all three drives experienced a complete failure at the same time so don't even show up as inserted into the Xserve - does this sound like a faulty controller?
what can i do to confirm the problem, and does anyone have any suggestions for resolving it wthin the Xserve RAID and/or otherwise getting access to the data?
could I plug another empty drive i know is working into a spare bay on the lower controller and if it doesnt show up as present in RAID Admin assume that the controller is definately faulty?
if the controller is faulty, is there any way of replacing the controller and installing the three discs and getting back access to them?
I'm no Apple expert, any help appreciated.

Hello natrat22, and welcome to the AppleBoards,
+if the controller is faulty, is there any way of replacing the controller and installing the three discs and getting back access to them?+
If you want to test the controller the easiest way is to turn the unit off, unplug it, swap the controllers and start it up again. The fan, power and controller units are completely part swappable so that should be pretty easy.
Check the Xserve RAID docs for more information: http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/XserveRAID_UserGuide.PDF
The general Xserve RAID area is here: http://www.apple.com/support/xserveraid/
It might also help if you were describe the drive/RAID configuration you're trying to resurrect.
Good luck,

  • Setting-up Problem in Acrobat Pro XI - It says "Scanner Driver is not installed"  How do I fix?

    Each time I try to Create a PDF from my newly installed Acrobat Pro XI  I receive an error message  "Scanner Driver is not installed or scanner is not connected"  How do I fix, as my Brother MFC printer/scanner is connected, as I can print OK.  Plus the scanner is working OK in Acrobat on a different computer?

    You can try installing twain twacker and see if the driver is working properly. You can download twacker from:
    http://www.twain.org/scannerdriverdevelopers/specification-and-tools.html
    If the scanner is working properly with twacker that would mean there are no issues with the scanner drivers.

  • Device Manages is indicating the driver is not installed

    Hi,
    I have a HP Photosmart C410 multifunction device, which is connected to my home network wireless network.
    I have a Microsoft Surface Pro with Windows 8.1 and have installed the HP installation sortware PS_AIO_07_C410_140_408 .exe and HP-ePrint-win-4.5.52.12202 .exe.
    I reinstalled the software again, yesterday.
    However the Device Manager is indicatijg that the Driver is not installed:
    The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28)
    There are no compatible drivers for this device.
    To find a driver for this device, click Update Driver."
    How do I fix the problem?

    Hi Dave_C,
    I understand the software isn't installing properly.
    I will be happy to help you.
    I would do a level 3 uninstall and reinstall the software again.
    Go to the tiles screen, (start up screen)
    start typing %temp%, open the folder starting with 7z, (Example: 7zS2356) util, ccc, uninstall_L3.
    When the uninstall has completed, restart the computer.
    Here is a URL to temporarily disable all the start up programs to see if one of them is causing any issues.
    How To Change Windows 8 Startup Programs.
    Temporarily turn off any Antivirus software.
    Then reinstall the software again.
    You will have to follow the same steps to enable all again and turn the Antivirus software back on again.
    Hope this helps.

  • Printer driver was not installed.  operation could not be completed

    Adobe Acrobat 9.3.1
    windows XP system.
    Cannot add the Adobe PDF printer get the error message:
    Printer driver was not installed.  operation could not be completed
    Software installs/repair try to install the Adobe PDF printer but they do not.  No error message; just that the Adobe PDF printer does not show up
    I tried adding the  Adobe PDF printer manually.
    The drivers start to load and then fails giving the error message  in the subject line.
    I cleared the print spoolers and rebooted.
    I have uninstalled Adobe Acrobat /rebooted/reinstalled.  Install says it adds the Adobe PDF printer but nothing happens.
    Problem exists for all users including Administrators.
    I have renamed the C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\drivers\w32x86 and C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\drivers\Printers folder.
    Both are recreated when I try to reinstall the Adobe PDF Printer.
    I can add network printers with no errors.
    I have cleared Adobe PDF printer from registry.  e.g.:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Environments\Windows NT x86\Drivers\Version-3\Adobe PDF Converter
    I even imported Adobe PDF registry entry from a working system taking care to adjust the system values accordingly.
    I also verified permissions for registry keys and application/driver folders were set correctly.
    I have completely reloaded the installation software and imported the Adobe PDF drivers from a working system.
    Not sure if this an Adobe issue, but that appears to be the only printer I cannot re-add.
    Any constructive ideas on what to try next would be appreciated.

    When I upgraded to Reader 9.4 I lost all ability to print Adobe pdf's.  Finally uninstalled 9.4, re-installed 8.2, changed the filename "high quality.joboptions" to "Adobe PDF converter.joboptions" and was back in business.  Pretty screwey fix, but after getting no help from online chats with Adobe and a day's lost work I was happy to have it.

  • Adobe Pdf Converter Print Driver Will not install

    Acrobat V9.0

    I have not been able to print to the PDF Printer. I get the following error when I select the PDF printer.
    "The 'Adobe PDF Converter' printer driver is not installed on this computer. Some printer properties will not be accessible unless you install the printer driver. Do you want to install the driver now?"
    When I say yes and select version 8.5.0.0 printer since it is the latest version. I get a Add Printer Driver Wizard window that says. "Unable to install adobe pdf converter, Type 3 - User Mode, x86 driver. Access is denied.
    I went through all the recommended steps on the web site listed below with no success.

    Solution 1: Use a supported installation.
    The following are unsupported installations, and the supported solutions:
    If you install Acrobat (Professional or Standard) on a 64-bit operating system, then you may
    see this error. Please update Acrobat to version 8.1 or later. You can update from within
    Acrobat via the help pull-down menu, or download the updater from the following location:
    http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=1&platform=Windows.
    If you install Acrobat to a shared network disk instead of a local hard disk, then the Adobe PDF
    printer is not installed. Install Acrobat on a local hard disk.

    I am having similar problems. After years of successful use, about a year ago, my printer (Epson stylus Photo R300) stopped working. After much investigation, it appears my computer no longer recognizes my printer. I've followed resets, safe boots, uninstalls, reinstalls, etc. This happened so long ago, I don't recall what I was doing when it happened. I'm figuring it happened shortly after a Software Update... So far none of the fixes recommended to me have solved the problem. I've been using Epson customer support, but they've stopped responding. None of their suggestions have seemed to work either.

  • Adobe Flash Player says not installed when it is.

    Adobe Flash Player shows as installed on the primary Admin account (and works there) all other Admin and regular user accounts say it isn't installed.
    I have tried installing as various users and Administrator status, but I get the same response.
    "Install Successful"
    "Adobe Flash Player not Installed"
    I am new to MAC, but can't fathom how this could be Apples fault. Unfortunately, Adobe support requires Adobe Flash Player to access help content.

    To find the folder I went to Finder > Library > Internet Plug-ins.
    The folder is empty and says 0 files. I am not currently on an Admin log-in, but I'm used to files showing regardless. When installing, I am asked for the Admin account and log in info before the file will load.
    I downloaded the latest flash player from Adobe this morning.
    Virtual Drive: What I am used to being an installation file in Windows shows up as a disk drive icon on my desktop. I have to "eject disk" to get rid of it. I thought it was just a "MAC" thing. Other software loaded this way, but also had me drag an icon to the Applications folder. Adobe does not.
    I am starting to wonder if there is a file sharing issue that isn't allowing me to see some software. I noticed I also do not see data in 'Public' when I know I added pictures there in another account. I can't remember changing any settings on my MBA. I have only had it a month and have been afraid of messing up my first MAC.
    Thanks for staying with this.
