RAID disk not seen from WInPE boot

Dear all,
We have a system with 3ware raid controler card configure as RAID1.
We are trying to build a standard Windows server 2008 image that can be installed in any System, by providing a system dependant unattend.xml file.
As a test first I have generate an unattend.xml file using WAIK. Then I have generate a WinPe boot disk.
When generating the WinPE boot disk, I have follow this procedure in order to add to WinPE boot my Raid controler driver:
http://www.windows-noob.com/forums/index.php?/topic/2349-guide-adding-drivers-to-a-custom-winpe-30/
The problem I have when booting from WinPe and listing volumes from DISKPART is that I cannot see my Disk mounted as RAID 1.
Any idea what can be wrong ?
regards
serge

Hi Serge,
Can you please post how did you resolve the issue? I am having similar issue here & I am unable to see the Disk Drives in WinPE 3.0. I have 2 3TB Hard Disk Drives connected & it needs Intel RAID drivers to load to see the drives in DISKPART "List
Disk" command. I used drvload.exe & it shows success but actually it didn't load the drivers & I am unable to see the drives.
But interestingly I am able to load the RAID drivers manually in Windows 7 Setup screen.
Please help me to load the drivers in WinPE.
Thanks,

  • I'm receiving error Boot Device Not Found and Hard disk not exist when I boot up my laptop

    I'm receicing the error Boot Device Not Found when i power on my HP G60-235DX laptop.  After following HP's recommended troubleshooting steps, I receive error Hard disk not exist.  Hmmmm....that's a little concerning.  My guess is I need a new hard drive?    I have the 17 recovery disks I made when I setup this laptop, however I'm not sure if they will resolve this issue.  Any suggestions?

    One of 3 things has happened, listed from most likely to least likely
    1. Hard drive has died, replace it with one of the same size or larger, then use the HP recovery discs to re-install windows.
    2, The motherboard has serious problems. (Replace the notebook)
    3. The hard drive cable that connects it to the motherboard has somehow failed, not very likely. (replace the cable)
    Replace the hard drive with a new one and use your recovery discs to get Windows back on it.
    Here is your service manual, will show you how to replace the hard drive

  • External disk not seen after sleep on Yosemite

    My sleep/wake issue on Yosemite affects the external disk (USB 3 connection) and the printer (HP 8600 all-in-one): On wake, after a long sleep, my iMac late 2012 shows an error message saying that the disk was not properly ejected and, in fact, the disk icon disappears from the desktop.  The printer issue is even worse: no longer seen by the system after a long sleep but also right after a print, i.e.the next print won't start because the system no longer "sees" it.
    About the printer, I originally thought it could be a driver issue but now that I see a similar problem occurring on the disk, I start thinking the driver could be only part of the problem.
    Most of times, a restart fixes the problem but this is very annoying.

  • "Disk not found" and "No boot device found"

    Please share any knowledge that may help in overcoming this problem. Installing Solaris 7 on Dell Precision 620, 933 Mhz, PIII. At the point where all systems seem about ready to go in completing interactive install, it comes back with "Disk not Found". A friend tried to help with his limited knowldeg from having loaded Solaris software before, but was unable to ascertain the problem. set_ environment command was not recognized. If its any help the boot path read: /pci@o,o/pci_ide@1f,1/ide@1/sd@o,o : boot args kernel/unix_-r
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi ,
    I have not faced this problem on solaris 7 however I did face a problem similar to this on Solaris 8. I made a small dos partition and made it active and then started the solaris 8 installation which then went through fine.
    Hope that helps.

  • Disks not seen in C200 server

    I have just been trying to solve this issue but with no success.
    I have a C200 server with 4 x SATA 7.2k 250 disks in there, the problem is whatever I try the server just doesn’t seem to see the disks.  
    In the basic boot up screen I should get this below showing the raid software kicking in and detecting the drives.
    From the manual showing how it should be
    However I just get the first two lines showing that the raid software is starting up but then a message saying no hard disks found, just the port 5 DVD drive.
    Also if I go into the BIOS and have a look at the list of devices in the SATA config it shows all ports as blank except for the DVD drive.
    This is a fresh out of the box server is there anything I need to do to make the server pick up the hard drives? From what I can see it should just do it automatically on boot up?  

    Yeah all seems to be in place all the disks light up, If I go in the CIMC and look in the inventory it shows that there are 4 disks in there as present, if I pull out 2 disks it shows them as absent so i know the server is physically seeing them and powering them up.....just nothing else seems to acknowledge them.

  • XServe RAID disks not showing up in Disk Utility

    I have a new (to me) xServe RAID box and I'm stuck, the stays lights are green the fiber link light is green on the RAID and not lit on the PCI card but shows up as green in the fiber link section of the settings tool but the RAID array doesn't show up in Disk Utility so I can't format the drives.
    I set up the disks as Enhanced JBOD using RAIDadmin and I've deleted and created it a couple of times, I'm just not sure what else I should try, I've read the manual but. Can't find any suggestions of what's going wrong.
    Thanks

    Port 1: Link Established
    2Gps
    Point to point
    Status light green
    In the system Profiler I'm not sure what you're asking for, I'm running 10.5.8 standard not server.
    the fibre channel shows link established 2Gps and cable type copper but nothing else, the disks & RAID controller don't show up anywhere I've looked.
    RAID Admin shows the JBOD disks as online and lists the LUNs etc.
    System looks fine, only error is missing second power supply.

    Hi Harish,
       Check whether your SecStore.properties file exists in <SID>\SYS\global\security\data folder. If not, place that file from the backups you have.

  • X3-02 RM-639 v7.51 fw not seen from Nokia update

    Why does the 7.51 version firmware not appear from within the Nokia Suite as an available update?  x3-02 RM-639 here currently at v5.65.

    Updates vary by region and product code and operator handsets,which may be locked and in most cases you are left waiting,
    Contact your provider if your handset is locked and ask them.After that you may just wait.

  • Organizations are not seen from Application R12

    Hi,
    I have installed R12.1 Fresh Database in my laptop and its running fine. I created Location, Organization and Organization classification using HRMS super user responsibility. When I opened the organizations window the organization that I created is not seen but they are stored in database. Is there any setup that I am missing?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    To access UK SHRMS Manager I changed the profile value for UK SHRMS Managers responsibiity. I choose "HR User" value at Responsibilty level for "HR User Type" Profile.
    Then I created location.
    UK SHRMS Manager>Work Structures>Location
    Then I created Organization
    UK SHRMS Manager>Work Structures>Organization>Description
    I classified this organization as Business Group.
    I closed all the windows. When I tried to query the organization that I created, only the default Business Group (Setup Business Group) is seen. But I can see all the organizations that I created in the database.
    I hope this will give you some idea to fix my problem.
    Thanks in advance

  • PSCS5 will not open from external boot disk

    Because OS 10.8.2 was the worst update in Apple history, for the first time ever I decided to  do the 10.8.3 update on an external boot disk before sacrificing my internal disk. I used Super Duper to make a bootable clone of my internal , booted from the external and then did the combo update. It seemed to be  ok although they didn't fix the scroll bars in Safari as I had hoped. The first app I tried was Photoshop CS 5.1. It tried to open but I got a window that said "could not inialize scratch disk because disk could not be found". After I clicked OK on that, another window said  "could not open because disk could not be found" .  I have never tried to open Photoshop any version from a bootable backup before and I don't know what this means. The scratch disk for Photoshop is set to be my internal drive Macintosh HD.  Why would it not find it?  If I were booting from my internal and had set the scratch to the external it would find it. Why would the app be looking for itself on another disk?
    After recloning my internal which is still 10.8.2, I have not yet booted from the external to see if the problem was somehow caused by 10.8.3, but I wouldn't be surprised if it was. People have reported the usual weird behavior of an upgrade already on forums, but not this paricular problem
    I am runninga 2011 mini with dual i7 and 8 GB of RAM.

    Just to be clear, resetting the Photoshop prefs is troubleshooting 101. I'll admit that since Photoshop CS and OS X, the need for resetting the prefs has gone way down (although I had a lot of problems when Photoshop first included GPU).
    However, if you EVER have a hang/force quit or an actual crash, you should seriously consider resetting the prefs because, well, in a hang or crash, that's when pref can get corrupted...afterwhich Photoshop can misbehave and cause problems.
    But in this case, resetting the prefs was a fix for the issue where the exact directory path for a scratch disk no longer existed and thus kept PS from even launching...
    Although the OP hasn't given an update, I'm 99.9999% sure his Photoshop is back to launching correctly...and that the issue was fixed by trashing the prefs.

  • TS140 Second HD (non-Lenovo) not seen until after boot

    I have a TS140 (70A4001MUX), which came with a 500 GB HD. I installed Win7Pro x64, replaced the 4GB RAM with 16 GB of Crucial RAM, and added a second HD (4 TB Western Digital Enterprise WD4000F9YZ). Both HDs are configured GPT, I am booting via UEFI, and the latest firmware (99A) is installed.
    This configuration mostly works, except that the second HD isn't visible until after booting. It does not appear in BIOS, which means I cannot boot from it. I have a boot partition on the second HD, cloned from my primary boot partition via Casper software. Normally, this provides me an alternative boot in case of drive failure or corruption on the first HD. But, on the TS140, attempting this alternative boot fails completely, as though the second drive were not there at all. Once I'm booted, though, I can read and write to the second HD all day long. Fwiw, all 16 GB of the new RAM does appear in BIOS.
    The second HD:
    Does NOT appear in BIOS.
    Does appear after boot to Windows 7.
    Does appear when booted from CD, such as WinPE and Paragon boot CD.
    Why won't BIOS recognize the second drive, that is clearly present and functional? Thanks for any thoughts and suggestions.

    Do you see the same behavior on a cold boot and a powered-up reboot?
    Since I'm not familiar with ThinkServers, I'm just tossing stuff at the wall here, but I wonder if the new drive is slow to initialize and BIOS is not waiting long enough to detect it.  Cold boot and reboot might behave differently in that case.  Not sure how to fix that if it is the problem, but it might help to narrow things down.
    [edit]  There is a hard disk pre-delay option in BIOS.  Not quite sure if it's intended for this situation (the one my WAG applies to) but might be worth a try.
