Proliant ML310e G8 boot error, boot logical drive is configured but missing or offline
Following a power outage the server will no longer boot up. During bootup I get the following...
HP Dyanamic Smart Array B120i RAID Controller (v3.06.0m 0MB) 0 Logical Volume
1785-Drive Array Not Configured
Run Array Configuration Utility
Press <F5> to run HP Array Configuration Utility (ACU)
Press <ESC> to skip
**** Boot Logical Drive s configured but is Missing or Offline.
In ACU it shows 930GB available on the 1TB drive. There are few article I found that mention going into F8 boot option and nothing fits in with the options available.
for example these
1. start the computer and wait till you see; "Press F8 to run option ROM configuration for Array utility"
2. Press F8, you will see the Main Menu, Select the last option "Select Boot Volume"
3. Select in Direct attached storage,
4. if you see first logicar drive 01 select it .
5. Press F8 To save Logical Drive 01 as Boot Volume.
6. Press F8 to Exit and start with New Boot Volume.
I did find the following advisory but the controller isnt in the ones listed under Scope.
http://h20565.www2.hp.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?sp4ts.oid=5177937&docId=emr_na-c04081865&docLocale...
Also as I mentioned, viewing the ACU screens refer to createing array and creating logicl volumes, no mention of setting boot order. And going the the steps of creating the array and logical volumes seem it will wipe the data.
Thank you in advance.

S.

SubbuHello Subbu,
> I have taken backup yesterday monrning in Archive log mode but have lost all the archive log files.
You mean you have taken an online backup and lost all your archive log files after that online backup?
SQL> alter database open resetlogs;
Error: ORA-01113: file 1 needs media recovery
ORA-01110: data file 1: 'E:\oracle\'<SID>\sapdata1\SYSTEM_1\SYSTEM.DATA1'
SQL> recover database using backup controlfile until cancel;
ORA-00279 : change 26627919 generated at DATE TIMEneeded for thread 1
ORA-00289 : Suggestion E:\ORACLE\<SID>\ORAARCH\<SID>ARCHARC03020_0683715008.001
ORA-00280: change 266277189 for thread 1 is in sequence #3020
To perform a recovery with an online backup you will need all archive log files until the end of the online backup. If you have lost them you are not able to recover (or open) your database in a consistent state.
So the only suggestion we can do is:
You need the archive log files that were created during the online backup to perform an incomplete recovery ... if they are gone you can not restore your database.

Logical drive 1 status = Ready for recovery ml350 g5
Hi,
I have a problem with a HP Proliant ML350 G5, 2 weeks ago the server did shutdown unexpectedly i looked in the ACU and saw that the controller had a battery problem. I replaced the battery but the server keeps once or twice a day shutting down. I made a report from the ACU but i don't know what this all means.
Here is a part of the report, i hope someone can lead me to the right solution,
Thanks in advance.

When I check my boot SSD drive using Disk Utility under Mavericks, I often get "Incorrect number of extended attributes" errors. But if I boot off an external drive and check the same SSD, no errors are reported.
This happens not just with the SSD in my Mac Mini, but with another SSD in my MacBook (both now running Mavericks). So far as I know, all of the kit I am using is in good order (despite the file corruption reports). So I am beginning to wonder if it could be due to a bug in Mavericks? Both SSD drives have been formatted to MacOS Extended (journaled) format. Should I have used a different format, I wonder?
Has anyone else encountered this issue?
Does anyone have a solution?
Or an explanation that might help my investigation of the issue?
Thanks guys,I understand that the Corsair Force 3 is not one of the SSD drives that are supported on Apple Macs.
I did try downloading and using Trim Enabler, but the error message came up both when it was off and when it was on.
I understand that not everyone thinks Trim Enabler is a good program, though there is a new version out now, so I may give it another try. -
Late 2013 imac 27" bootcamp install of win 8.1 pro, boot camp driver setup errors out
I installed windows 8 pro via boot camp. then once the win8 install completed the boot amp driver setup began automaticly. it errored out at some point with the below error
Boot Camp Install completed
he installer incountered errors before the boot camp could be completed.
To retry these operations at a later time please run the installer again.
What is this error? It does not give me anything to go on. it seems like most of the drivers were installed fully, but there is still a divce under device manager that is not installed completely. Also, I don't have the boot camp icon in my system trey in the bottom right corner of my screen.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Can you install Boot Camp on a Pegasus2 Logical Drive?
Trying to plan my upgrade to the new Mac Pros and I'm wondering whether it's possible to install Boot Camp on a logical drive located on a Promise Pegasus2 Thunderbolt enclosure? Ideally I'd be setting up a series of logical drives on a Pegasus2 (2 to duplicate existing drives in my current Mac Pro, 1 for Time Machine, and 1 for Boot Camp) but I can't seem to find out whether Boot Camp partitions are supported...
I too would like to install a bootcamp partition on an SD card so that I will not loose a huge chuck of my internal drive to Windows, a system I need very rarely (this is important for all users of SSHDs, where internal storage space is precious).
If it is not possible to create a bootcamp partition on an external SD card, how about installing Lion first on that SD card, booting from the SD card, and then creating the bootcamp partition on that card. I would think that Lion's disk utility would consider the SD card as the internal disk, and so should make the partition and allow the installation. Large fast SD cards are not cheap, but I would think that this would be an option for those of us with limited internal storage space.
Has anybody tried this option? -

I keep getting Error code 1603 whenever I try to install the boot camp driver update under Windows Vista, it says something about a restart pending in the event log but I've restarted twice and it hasn't changed a thing, is there any way to fix this?
right click on my computer, go to manage, then to device manager.
Under display adapters, remove everything, may ask to reboot, try rebooting or just run installer again.
This fixed it for me, i tried so many things before i found this fix. -
Fresh install and preserve boot camp drive?
I have an older 2007 MacPro (2 dual core CPUs @ 3Ghz) that has the following...
MacPro Internals:
Mac HD drive = 500GB (Bay 1)
Mac RAID drive = 500GB (Bay 2) + 500GB (Bay 3)
Windows drive = 320GB (Bay 4) - boot camp drive with Vista 64
ATI 3870 HD Video
BlackMagic Designs Intensity Pro
2nd Firewire card
External devices:
Motu Ultralite FW Audio interface
Mackie Control Surface
M-Audio AXIOM 25 MIDI keyboard
LG Blu-Ray eSATA Burner
30" Mac HD monitor
24" Dell Monitor
42" HD TV
15" SD TV
Oki C5800L color laser printer
Software on my MacPro:
iWorks and iLife 09
Final Cut Studio 3
Logic Pro 9
Adobe CS4 Extended
FX Factory
Flip4Mac Studio Pro HD
QuickTime Pro (purchased version)
I'd like to do a clean install of SL. The reason I want to do a fresh install is that when I went from Tiger to Leopard (2007 MacPro) vs. Leopard pre-installed new (on my 2008 iMac), there are indeed some difference -- specifically different Leopard driver support that appeared on a fresh install iMac, but not when "upgrading" on my MacPro (printer drivers for example).
My hunch is that SL will detect existing drivers and NOT upgrade them to the SL version -- which may or may not be a good thing especially if the SL version drivers are 64bit while my L version drivers are 32bit. So the end result with going the "upgrade" route will be a mixed bag of 32bit and 64bit drivers. I'm pretty sure this is NOT gonna be a good situation if I ran the "upgrade" rather than a fresh install.
However, it's CRITICAL that I not lose my Windows Drive (Boot camp) with Vista 64 on it. This is a separate physical drive (Bay 4) but if I do a fresh install of SL, will the installer recognize I have a Boot camp drive and will it still allow dual boot using option key at startup (showing my the Mac or Windows drive to boot to)?
Rob.Hi Rob,
Sorry been out of the country
Yes you are correct the EFI Looks after the booting of OS's from any hard drive.
if you hold down the alt key while booting it will give you a list of drives it thinks it can boot from.
In theory any windows volume with XP SP2 or newer should boot (+though if not installed on the same hardware originally is will complain about divers & if more than 15% of the hardware has change windows sometimes needs to be reactivated+)
I run multiple systems at my office using the same multi hard drive setup you have and have never had any problems changing / updating the Mac HD while leaving the Windows HD fully intact. -
Using Casper 6 to clone Boot Camp drive
I've cloned my XP Boot Camp drive using Casper 6.0 to a new NTFS internal drive but am unable to boot into the newly cloned drive.
I've sent the log files from the cloning to Casper's developer and they've said everything looks correct.
Pressing the option key on startup does not display the new'y cloned drive.
Going to System Prefs>Startup does display the drive but when I select it for startup I get an error message saying something to the effect that I need to insert a bootable CD. I can boot from the Casper CD but I need to boot from the drive.
The new drive is formatted NTFS using GUID Partition Table. Just like all 4 of my internal drives (2 of which are NTFS) I have not set any jumper blocks on the cloned drive. The drives are all SATA.
Any ideas how I can resolve this?Well I sort of fixed my problem w/booting my Casper drive. I ended up purchasing Paragon Partition Manager Pro and created a bootable clone of my XP BootCamp drive on the first attempt.

How to create a back up disk of a Boot Up drive?
Hi all, I have a G5 with a start up drive A, i've created a new start up on a separate partition, drive B.
Installed the OS from Jaguar, Panther through to Tiger.
Now before I start installing all my audio applications, i'd like to back up Drive B to a DVD disk, is this possible?
So if i ever need to do a full re-install, i can skip the old OS installs and restore from the DVD. How would I do this?
Any help is throughly appreciated.
Thanks
Jazz
G5 Dual 2.0Ghz (Oct/03) - 4.5GB ram Mac OS X (10.4.7) 17in MBP C2DWhat you are proposing sounds a bit convoluted; I'm not so sure I understand you fully.
I'll share with you my "belt-and-suspenders" method of backing up:
My boot drive is 40GB. My backup firewire drive is 230GB. I have the backup drive partitioned into two volumes; one 40GB and the other 190BG.
Every day I use SuperDuper to clone my entire boot drive to the 40GB partition. After it is done, I have an exact copy. If my boot drive fails, I can boot into the clone and continue working until I get the internal drive replaced.
But SuperDuper and other cloning programs have their limits. They protect well against hardware failure. But a far more common cause of data loss is user error; like when you accidentally delete a file. If you don't notice until after your next backup, SuperDuper will have purged the file from the clone. Software failure is another concern; like when your whole iPhoto library gets corrupted. Again, unless you catch it before the next scheduled backup, SuperDuper will replace the good library in the clone with the corrupted version.
That's why I also use Retrospect to make nightly archival backups. Every day it copies any new or changed folders over to an archive on the second partition. I can restore any file, folder, application, or even the whole drive, to any daily state in the last two months. If an important file gets corrupted or deleted, and I don't notice for 11 days, I just restore the 12-day old version from the archive.
That seems like it should cover it all, but there is also the problem of losing both the Mac and the backup drive to theft or fire. That's why I also have Retrospect back up my whole system to DVDs once a week or so, and store them off site. Retrospect's DVD backup system is quite good; it will continually append new or changed data to the same DVD until it is full and then prompt for a new DVD. So there's no need to re-burn a whole new set of DVDs every time.
This might seem like overkill, but my data is important to me and I can't imagine losing it all. You should have seen what happened when I accidentally deleted my wife's iMovie project of her whole pregnancy, and didn't have it backed up. I don't ever want to have to live through that again. -
IBook G3 won't boot hard drive
Hello guys.
Recently I got a whole slew of iBook G3s, broken and new, which I will eventually fix and sell (probably keep one) but I am still in the process of fixing them and have a few questions.
I have this hard drive that I'm almost certain works (I can install tiger on it without it crashing) but it refuses to boot to tiger. I know it's not the iBook itself because I have a different hard drive that boots great, even in other iBooks too. I'm figuring the mbr config is jacked up, and ive already tried option apple pr and reset nv ram, reset defaults, and so forth in the firmware. How do I make this darn thing boot? And yes, I have tried to boot directly from the cd, but when it restarts it just sits there with the two faced mac face and the blinking question mark. I bet I'm going to have to do some magic in the OF, but I don't know what to type, so yeah...
Thanks.But you said:
+I'm trying to boot from the OS X Tiger CD, and I know there's nothing wrong with it because I've done a full install on another hard drive and it was fine.+
Are you saying it did boot off the CD and install, but now it won't boot off the CD?
By the way, Tiger normally comes on a DVD. There are a few copies on CD out there, but they are relatively rare. Is your copy of Tiger on CD or DVD? Have you used a retail copy of Tiger for the installation? If you used an Tiger install disc from another Mac, that may not work on the iBook. -
Mb pro running like garbage with 10.8.2 tried a reinstall of osx from recovery utility now the utility says my hard drive is ok but wont boot into it keeps booting me back into recovery tried restart option to select disk tried using the select startup disk from recovery, gives a message asking if i really want to boot to it and in that message is the only rime it shows a question mark on the drive dont know what to do cant find similar issue
Your rushing and not making much sense.
Your machine was running like garbage, so you tried to reinstall 10.8---did you do this or not?
Disk Utility says your drive is ok, that's good.
But when you boot it keeps booting Recovery HD, so perhaps the firmware has made a mistake, it can forget.
You held the option key down to boot into Startup Manager, why didn't you select OS X for the boot volume?
When you get into OS X you change the Startup Disk in System Preferences, that should take care of the Flashing Question mark issue.
attemtping to ireinstall osx from recovery partition bar is full on install screen, but im now at -6hours remaining
So now your reinstalling OS X like you set out to do before, it does take some time as it has to download from Apple's servers.
If your Internet connection is slow and/or Wifi is slow then it will take awhile.
So you should have the Flashing Question Mark and Reinstall Only OS X covered.
You should be able to boot the machine, but your performance issues may be something else and still remain.
Why is my computer slow?
