PX6-300d and new disk issues

Hello!
I have PX6-300d with 6 2TB disks installed. I'd like to replace them with 6 4 TB disks. To save all my data first time i tried to do hot replace 2 TB disk #6 with 4 TB disk. It didn't work cause I had repeating message about disk cleaning. I did clening pocedure with diskpart.exe but nothing changed. If I replace drives with PX6-300d shut down then PX6 doesn't start. So I removed all 6 2 TB disks and installed 1 4 TB disk. Device didn't load. I started PX6 with no disks and install 4 TB disk on working PX6. I received the same situation with repeating message about disk overwriting. My new 4 TB disk is Seagate ST4000VN000 and it should be compatible with PX6. I have last firmware version installed...
The question is: what's wrong or is there correct way to upgrade my PX6 from 2 TB disks to 4 TB disks? 
Thank you very much for any useful information...

Hi aketkov,
The device will ask you to overwrite any existing data when you install a new drive, even if there is not any data on the drive. You will need to allow the device to erase the disks to add them. Please follow the instruction procedure on the following support page: Upgrading the storage capacity for an Iomega network storage device

  • PX6-300D and UPS

    I have an APC Back-UPS 450 that always worked with the PX6 when the unit was on Iomega's firmware. Ever since I put it on Lenovo firmware, it's been unable to recognize the UPS. What gives?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I had the same issue after applying firmware 4.1.106.31982 on my PX4-300D.  My USB ports were still working,  because I could connect external storage to the ports and transfer data via USB.
    I tried the network cable trick and even went so far as resetting the device to factory default and restoring data from backup, but my Back-UPS ES 550 was still not recognized, so I opened a support ticket.
    After a few days, I was told that they had just released a new firmware version 4.1.108.32627 and that it contains a fix for APC Back-UPS not being recognized.  I've applied this firmware and can confirm the UPS is now recognized.  It also doesn't appear to have broken anything as far as I can tell, which is a nice change.

  • Satellite boot and recovery disk issue, help please...

    Hello,
    Well here is the issue. My satellite is a few years old, all the sudden it quits booting. Gets to the starting windows xp mode then crashes and repeats the process. So I thought, well..I will just install my recovery disks..
    Well, thanks to whatever reason, and its frustrating as anything..I get a wrong machine error. Wont allow me to install my recovery disks. Call toshiba, they say my warranty expired have to go pay a service rep.. Arrgh..
    This was bought brand new and it is the correct machine..
    Anyway..when I get wrong machine i do get:
    Installation process aborted/failed!
    A:/>_
    I am assuming, there is something I can type there that will have it reconize my machine.. Any ideas?? Toshiba was no help. Or.. If you have a idea on how i can boot this thing without the recoery disks.

  • Having problem with Solaris LUN and New disk

    Hi All,
    I'm using Solaris server, SunOS 5.10 Generic_144488-08 sun4u sparc SUNW, SPARC-Enterprise.
    There is a newly created LUN of 250GB. I've scanned the system and able to see the new LUN.
    I've also checked the LUN size and it's confirmed having 250GB.
    However, when I tried to create a new file system (UFS) and mount it, I'm only able to get less than 100GB.
    What went wrong? Or did I miss out anything?
    Appreciate for any help / advises.
    Thanks a lot.

  • SCOM 2012 and New-WebServiceProxy issue to access C:\Windows\Temp

    I am currently development management pack for data center equipment. This management pack connect to a WCF service (hosted as windows service on one of the management servers in the management group). WCF service works as intermediate layer between equipment
    and management pack. It connects to equipment and does following task periodically:
    1. Connect to equipment
    2. Generate inventory information from equipment
    3. Collect fault information
    4. Map inventory information to faults
    Management pack connects to WCF service and requests the inventory information, fault information etc. Following is the way to access WCF service.
    $wcfConnection = New-WebServiceProxy http://<fqdn of management server>:8732/DataCenterEquipmentService
    Now we use connection object to retrieve the data.
    $wcfConnection.GetFaults() will provide me fault data as XML and using MOM.ScriptAPI object we insert data to SCOM.
    Now the issue is when create WCF connection object, it throws errors:
    Could not load file or assembly 'file:///C:\Windows\TEMP\gjdtzucb.dll' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.
    This arbitrary dll file name is very random and every time it tries to make connection to WCF service, it throws random dll name.
    Please help me to resolve this issue.
    Thanks,
    -Mukul

    Hello Mukul, were you able to resolve this? I am getting the exact same error. Thanks.

  • Import-csv and New-ADUser issue

    Hi there,
    I am fairly new to PS (and this site) and I don't understand what I am doing wrong. (I changed some domain settings where applicable to not the reflect the real-world scenario, just an example)
    CSV content:
    Firstname,Lastname,Maildomain,SAM,OU,Password,Description
    User,Test01,contoso.com,utest01,OU=Standard Users,OU=Users,DC=domain,DC=loc,P@ssw0rd,Test User
    PS script:
    $Users = Import-Csv -Delimiter "," -Path "C:\Userlist-sn.csv"
    foreach ($User in $Users)
    $Displayname = $User.Firstname + " " + $User.Lastname
    $UserFirstname = $User.Firstname
    $UserLastname = $User.Lastname
    $OU = "$User.OU"
    $SAM = $User.SAM
    $UPN = $User.Firstname + "." + $User.Lastname + "@" + $User.Maildomain
    $Description = $User.Description
    $Password = $User.Password
    New-ADUser -Name "$Displayname" -DisplayName "$Displayname" -SamAccountName $SAM -UserPrincipalName $UPN -GivenName "$UserFirstname" -Surname "$UserLastname" -Description "$Description" -AccountPassword (ConvertTo-SecureString $Password -AsPlainText -Force) -Enabled $true -Path "$OU" -ChangePasswordAtLogon $false –PasswordNeverExpires $true -server domain.loc
    I am getting the following error:
    New-ADUser : The object name has bad syntax
    At C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\import-test.ps1:12 char:15
    + New-ADUser <<<< -Name "$Displayname" -DisplayName "$Displayname" -SamAccountName $SAM -UserPrincipalName $UPN -GivenName "$UserFirstname" -Surname "$UserLastname" -Description "$Description" -AccountPassword (ConvertTo-SecureString $Password -AsPlainText -Force) -Enabled $true -Path "$OU" -ChangePasswordAtLogon $false –PasswordNeverExpires $true -server domain.loc
    + CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (CN=User Test01...t Test User}.OU:String) [New-ADUser], ADException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : The object name has bad syntax,Microsoft.ActiveDirectory.Management.Commands.NewADUser
    Now that I am writing this question it kind of dawned on me whether or not the problem is with the csv, as delimiter is "," and the OU value has commas in it and it destroys syntax. If this is so then my question would be, how to save the input
    so the values are retained correctly? Is the New-ADUser command itself ok?
    Thank you all.

    Hi,
    Now that I am writing this question it kind of dawned on me whether or not the problem is with the csv, as delimiter is "," and the OU value has commas in it and it destroys syntax.
    Are the OUs quoted inside of the CSV? If so, the commas inside should be fine.
    Here's an easy test to see if your problem is with the input:
    Quoted OU path:
    PS C:\Scripts\PowerShell Scripts\Misc Testing\5-21-2014> Import-Csv .\Userlist-sn.csv
    Firstname : User
    Lastname : Test01
    Maildomain : contoso.com
    SAM : utest01
    OU : OU=Standard Users,OU=Users,DC=domain,DC=loc
    Password : P@ssw0rd
    Description : Test User
    Unquoted OU Path:
    PS C:\Scripts\PowerShell Scripts\Misc Testing\5-21-2014> Import-Csv .\Userlist-sn2.csv
    Firstname : User
    Lastname : Test01
    Maildomain : contoso.com
    SAM : utest01
    OU : OU=Standard Users
    Password : OU=Users
    Description : DC=domain

  • Customer service and new ipod issues

    i have called customer service 3 times and have been put on hold for about an hour in total, all asking me to wait for the senior adviser. i was told in my last call yesterday that the senior adviser will call me when he has time. from the service i've gotten so far, i won't be surprised if i don't get a call. why can't apple just add email support?
    basically my problem is that the top portion of the touch starts to get warm within a few minutes of using it, even if im just surfing the web or looking through the app store, and after about 20-30 minutes, it gets noticeably hot. not burning but just hot. does this happen with anyone elses 4g touch? ive been to 2 service providers and they say its cos of the wifi or some sort of app ive installed. ive restored to factory settings already but surely the wifi component shouldnt get so hot? this never happened with my 2g touch.
    i also noticed scratches on the back already on a week old touch just like my 2g and i am VERY careful. i got a replacement just because of scratches last time for it and i basically sent a photo through email which was about 2 years ago so im guessing apple removed the email support since then? apple support has gotten a lot worse and i would've probably been better off just buying off a third party for cheaper than from the online store.

    I noticed that my iPod gets hot occasionally if I use it for more than 30 mins, I mainly use it while it's in it's case, so it heats up a little.
    As for the scratches, that just seems to be the fate of most things that apple makes. Best is to try to protect it as best as you can. I have a red leather case that closes like a day planner to protect it all the way around, a plastic cover that protects it's back and a screen protector that protects it's front. Bit of overkill I know, but at $300 I don't have the money to replace it if it gets damaged.
    I bought the case from Amazon.com for about $15, Apple wanted twice that for the same kind of case.

  • Px6-300d raid types problem

    Just bought new px6-300d and installed into it 4 WDC_WD40EFRX (WD Red 4Tb)
    In "Add storage" area in "Protection" combo there are only RAID 5, RAID 10, RAID 0 and None. I need RAID 1 and JBOD and i guess px6 should support such types of RAIDs. So how i can enable RAID 1 and JBOD on px6?

    Just for information
    I selected 2 disks and RAID 10 option and NAS created it as RAID 1, what i actualy needed

  • StorCenter px6-300d SNMP Community String

    Dear Reader,
    We have a NAS (StorCenter px6-300d) and we want to monitor it with our monitoring system.
    On the Iomega website (http://iomega.com/resources/ui/px6-300d-313/help/help.html) i've found the configuration steps (see below) and configured our NAS.
    Configuring SNMP settings
    To enable SNMP, click the switch on.
    Enter a unique username and password to define the community.
    Confirm your password.
    Enter the IP address of the host in the Trap Receivers text box. To grant access to multiple receivers, list all of them in the text box, separating each entry with a space.
    Click Apply to save your settings
    In our monitoring system we get the following msg: SNMP agent down - no response received. I think this is because of the (wrong) community string. In our monitoring system, under configuration tab, I tried 'public', 'username', 'password' etc in the community string field but it is not working.
    I hope someone can help me with this... what is the community string? If i'm doing something else wrong then...
    Thanks in advance.
    With kind regards,
    From the Netherlands
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi yunuz,
    The username and password that you set on the NAS device needs to match on the SNMP server that you are trying to connect to. So use the same username and password for the server. Do you know what SNMP version your client is using?
    What is an “SNMP Community String”?
    The “SNMP Community string” is like a user id or password that allows access to a router's or other device's statistics. PRTG sends the community string along with all SNMP requests. If the community string is correct, the device responds with the requested information. If the community string is incorrect, the device simply discards the request and does not respond.
    Note: SNMP Community strings are used only by devices which support SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c protocol. SNMPv3 uses username/password authentication, along with an encryption key.
    By convention, most SNMPv1-v2c equipment ships from the factory with a read-only community string set to "public". It is standard practice for network managers to change all the community strings to customized  values in the device setup.

    You may want to run disk part and clean the disk a few more times. Sometimes it will take multiple runs. Then replace it and gracefully restart through the UI. Let it sit at least a few hours and see what the status is.

  • Startup Disk issue in new Mac Air. Replaced with another new mac, then again. MS Excel culprit?

    Hey guys, I bought a macbook Air 11’ 4GB 128GB (Mid-2011(after selling my 13” macbook pro) and the problems seem to be never ending.
    My primary work involves using MS Excel so I installed  a licensed version of Office for Mac 2011 and started using excel on my new mac machine. Within few minutes I got a message pop-up on screen “YOUR MAC OS STARTUP DISK HAS NO MORE SPACE AVAILABLE FOR APPLICATION MEMORY”.
    I checked the size of storage and there was just 5 GBs worth space left despite the fact that there was not a single photo, music, video on the new mac apart from a few MBs of excel files. I took it to the vendor (APPLE PREMIUM RESELLER) who after re-installing lion returned it to me and the same issue again popped up. Finally, they diagnosed an SSD problem and after a week of waiting, I was given a brand new shiny macbook air MC969 (same model).
    I used the new one and again while using excel, the same issue has come up. I’m really fed up of this stupid error bcoz I was using the same OFFICE FOR MAC suite on my macbook pro and never suffered any such problem. I have also twice thrice completed all the steps I was told to do (like repair disk perm. Emptying the cache etc. )
    Since India doesn’t have any Apple owned stores but only Premium Resellers whose replacement etc policies are not governed by Apple.
    They do not even refund the money but have given an option of diagnosing the machine and replacing the problematic part.
    I googled the web and found no such issued with EXCEL. Strangely, other apps in the office suite seem to work well without any issues.
    I have attached the screenshots that how while using excel, within a couple of minutes, mac starts to heat up, then storage decreases and finally the error where mac becomes dead slow.
    Please help me to determine where the cause lies.

    The Excel files size range between 29KB to 60KB.
    That's it.
    I called up the reseller and he said that the replacement period is now over and mac would only be repaired.
    I dont want my Mac to get unscrewed

  • How to resolve errors (-50 and -8058) when moving Time Machine backups to new disk?

    I'm trying to move my Time Machine backups (about 600GB total) to a new external hard drive.  I started the process last night, but after an hour or so received two errors, each repeated multiple times:
    "The operation couldn't be completed because an unexpected error occurred (error code -8058)." 
    "The operation couldn't be completed because an unexpected error occurred (error code -50)."
    I opted to cancel the file transfer.  I looked up the error codes but I'm still not sure what they mean.  I found an old support article about error code -50 (Mac OS X 10.1: "Error Code -50" Alert Appears When Copying Files From a Remote Disk) and an old support article about error code -8058 that doesn't appear to be entirely relevant to my issue (Mac OS X 10.4: Error -8058, unable to eject when trying to copy a disc in Finder).  I've also found a number of Support Community discussions, none of which are particularly helpful.
    Questions:
    What do these two error codes mean?  Are the files that cause these errors somehow corrupt?
    If I click "Okay" when the error dialog appears, are the files that are causing the errors transferred or are they omitted from the transfer?
    If I transfer the files and click "Okay" when the errors appear, or if I use Terminal and cp -R as suggested in Mac OS X 10.1: "Error Code -50" Alert Appears When Copying Files From a Remote Disk, will I have trouble recovering files from the new backup disk?
    Do I need to verify/repair permissions on the original Time Machine disk before attempting the transfer?
    Is there some other method I should use (e.g. Terminal instead of Finder) to transfer the backups?
    Details:
    MacBook Air
    Mac OS 10.8.5
    Both the old and new Time Machine disks are formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)

    The two drives are handled as separate drives, even if they have the same name.
    In essence, the old backups are from a drive that's no longer connected; see #E3 in the Time Machine - Troubleshooting *User Tip,* also at the top of this forum.
