Raid not connecting

Ok, I'll try to give the best info i can. Everything was working fine but I had to move the xserve to the botton of the cabinet.
So I unmounted all the rais and drives and shut it down. Disconnected eveything put it back were it needed to go and the server
is fine but I get a networ errror message in Server"The network configuration has changed" In raid admin it shows the 3 raids failed to connect.
I reset the controller on each raid but nothing has changes. I can see and open all the drives inn finder and see the files.
What am I missing?
Thanks
Martin

Hi Martin,
On the xserve do you have the FQDN fully qualified domain name in server admin? You should be able to connect by clicking Add server and entering 127.0.0.1.
As for RAID Admin it only works if the RAID is connected via ethernet. It sounds as if you either haven't connected the ethernet, your network config has changed or you had them on DHCP. Try clicking Add on RAID admin then seeing if it sees the 3 RAIDS. It's always best to set these to a fixed IP.
Hope that helps

Raid Admin Not Connecting

I've left my comuputer and Xserve Raid running as advised, and went out of town for a week. It has been totally inactive. Today I opened Raid Admin and nothing happens. It doesn't search, there isn't a log etc. I added system and typed in the address, it searches but does not connect. However I am able to use Raid with FCP, and can open and play QT's that are on it as well as open other files. Should I just re-start the computer? It is connected with ethernet cable. Nothing has changed except the fact that I haven't touched anything in a week.

It doesn't have to be a G4 powerbook, it can be any Mac with RAID admin installed. I think the only reason he mentioned a powerbook was that most have their RAID connected in another location of the building and it is easier to access by walking down the hall with a laptop instead of lugging their desktop into the server room. Your current setup should work. Although you shouldn't have to ping the RAID because if you're on the same subnet, Raid Admin should find it automatically. If you have a router or switch or hub, maybe try to connect that between you and the RAID and see if Admin will pick it up. Then proceed to give it a static IP and you should be all set.

Half of RAID not mounting

I have got an Xserve RAID RAID with 250 gig drives. Drives 1-7 RAID 5 connected to one server through a Qlogic SAN box 64 and working as expected. Drives 8-14 RAID 5 connected to another server also through the Qlogic switch. I cannot get 8-14 to mount.
I have rebuilt the parity information, restarted the controller, and even physically connected the RAID to the server with no luck.
I can see the Node World Wide Name of the RAID in System Profiler, but I see nothing in Disk Utility. Nothing appears out of the ordinary in RAID Admin.
I know the fiber connection points are working, as I can mount and work with my SAN (on other RAIDs). Firmware is 1.5.1 on all RAID units.
The only thing I have not tried is physically moving the drives to another unit a that requires taking down the SAN.
I do have all the data backed up on tape, but I don't really want to restore everything that way unless I have to.

Well, after several hours on the phone with Apple Enterprise support, the problem has been solved.
The problem was in fact LUN Masking. As we should all be aware LUN Masking was removed from RAID Admin 1.5.1 (it is still there in 1.5.0). 3 years ago when the Apple SE set up our SAN, he used LUN Masking instead of creating zones in the fibre switch. According to other information I received, this was an OK way to do it at the time.
Solving the problem was a little time-intensive, but it now works.
First I had to download RAID Admin 1.5.0 and install it on one of my clients. Using that, I had to remove LUN Masking from all of my RAIDs. This is where it got a little tricky, as I had to power down all my servers so LUNs did not show up on multiple computers.
Once the LUN Masking was removed, I created a new Fabric on my switch (thanks go to aaron on http://www.xsanity.com/article.php?story=20060312090411100&query=zoning). Then, after turning everything with a fibre port off, I updated the fabric zoning.
When I turned everything back on, not only did I have LUNs in the correct location, but my SAN worked, too!

Is it possible to record data directly from PXI-5112 scope card through PXI bus to SCSI RAID array (connected to PXI-8210)?

Colleagues,
Is it possible to record data directly from PXI-5112 scope card through PXI bus to SCSI RAID array (connected to PXI-8210)?
Which will be the maximum transfer rate for continuous data recording?
Thank you,
Sergey
Sergey

Sergey,
The PXI-8210 can connect to any SCSI 2 compliant device. If the RAID controller is SCSI 2 and appears just like a hard drive in the operating system, then you can send data directly to the RAID array. The problem is that the driver for the PXI-5112 does not yet support continuous acquisition. The on-board 16MB or 32MB buffer stores the data until the entire acquisition is completed. Once the acquisition complete, all of the data is transferred from the on-board buffer to the hard drive. After that happens, the NI 5112 is ready for another acquisition.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you boot, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, reboot as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

Why won't my Power Mac G5 not connect to my Wifi?

My Power Mac G5 will not connect to my Wifi. I have tried rebooting and other methods, and none seem to work. Any advice or tips would be much appreciated!

I had the same problem, my G5 didn't find any wireless network anymore.
After doing lots of trouble shooting as advised on various websites I finally had as last resort a look inside my G5 and sure enough I found one of the connections wasn't plugged in!
I normally don't use WIFI very often on my G5, so I can't pin point when it stopped, but having said this, I did have my G5 in the Apple store 3 months ago to get a new graphic card. Surely they would have seen the issue and fixed it at the same time, one assumes.
Anyway, after fiddling around for at least 30 minutes, because I have a Raid card installed and it's covering half of the wifi card, I finally managed to plug in the tiny button and voila the wireless network was working again.
To find out where your wifi card is, I found this service guide, explaining all the inside parts and where they are.

I can't use Raid Admin connect to Raid

Hi All,
i can't use raid admin connect to my Xraid.
network is ok, networkcable is ok.Raid works find.
when i use raid admin connect to Xraid, it shows me"connection error" and then the app take more than 50% cpu usage.
any ideas?

Hi Chris,
If the controllers are not properly seated in the RAID chassis, they will not be able to communicate with RAID Admin and you will get a connection error. Improperly seated controllers can lead to other problems as well, so I would recommend reseating them.
To do this, power down the RAID by pushing the power button on the back and holding it for about 5 seconds. The RAID will not power off completely, but all the indicator lights on the front of the chassis should go out. Once those lights are out, unplug both power cables. Release one of the controller cards by pushing inward on both clips, then pull the card about half way out. Push it back in gently until both clips click into place. Do the same with the other controller card. Plug both power cords in and push the power button to power the RAID back on.
You should either unmount your RAID from your server, or power the server off before you power off the RAID. You can power your server back on once all the indicator lights on your RAID show green. If you have just unmounted it, it should mount automatically once the RAID controllers are up and running.
Hope this helps.

What do i do if my internet is wep and i need it to be wpa2 because my ipod touch 4th gen connects to the internet but when i click on safari or itunes it says safari cannot open the page because its not connected to the internet

what do i do if my internet is wep and i need it to be wpa2 because my ipod touch 4th gen connects to the internet but when i click on safari or itunes it says safari cannot open the page because its not connected to the internet. i have contacted apple support and they said to change from wep to wpa2 but when i change it to wpa2 and type in password and connect on my laptop it says the saved setting on this computer for the network do not match the require ments of the network

My 2nd gen works fine with WPA2 and AES encryption.
You may need to go back and start over. Reset the router back to factory defaults, log on as the admin, set up security, DHCP, and make sure the IP address pool has enough IP addresses to lease to ALL of the computers/devices that will connect to that the router.

ITunes could not connect to the iTunes Store "Error Message"

I recently added iTunes 7.6 to my Windows XP operating system at the same time when I added an *Ion USB Turntable (TTUSB).* I currently have the 80G iPod with the larger video screen. I added in the supplied software of the EZ Vinyl Converter. The software reads from Gracenote and imports into iTunes okay. But now my PC cannot access the iTunes store to buy songs, read the tracks on the discs, or display new album artwork. The diagnostic read the network connectivety test, the CD/DVD drive, and iPod connectivity tests all read okay. I followed the directions on checking the network settings under the Internet Options Tool "Connections" Lan Settings and the Automatic detection and still no dice. All I get is "Make sure your network is active."

I'm seeing this error on some, but not all, of my Windows XP machines. On my personal development XP box, I see this error if iTunes is closed when I try and access iTunes U via my transfer script or Stanford's.
"iTunes could not connect to the Music Store. The network connection was terminated unexpectedly. Make sure your network connection is active and try again."
The errors occured in IE 7 Beta, Firefox 1.5.x, and Firefox 2 Beta. In each case, iTunes U loaded after I clicked the 'ok' button in iTunes. I did notice that in Firefox's case an additional pop-up window appeared that asked whether or not I had iTunes; when I selected that I do have itunes, it transfered me to iTunes but generated the error.
After getting these errors on my Windows XP machine, I tried it on two different lab machines running Windows XP, and didn't get the error message once -- I tried it in IE 6, Firefox 1.0.x and Firefox 1.5.x and they all worked. It even worked with IE 7 Beta and Vista Beta.
Based on this, I think the problem must lie in how Windows registered iTunes, and the handshake just isn't happening properly.

Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html

Hi, my MacBook Air is not working anymore if it's not connected with the power cable. It's pretty new so I can't imagine that the battery is dead already. Why can't I use my MacBook Air without the power cable even though I charged it for hours?

I need to upgrade my 10.5.1 os on my G4/1.25 (I'm having some audio-midi setup problems), but it's a machine that is not connected to the internet. Do I have any options? Thanks!

Friends,
I'm having some audio-midi setup problems on my G4/1.25/10.5.1 machine. I'm thinking that a routine OS upgrade might help. However, this machine is not connected to the internet. Are there any alternate methods for upgrading system software? Thanks in advance!

OK, what you should do is download the updates on another machine and burn them to a disc. Start at this link http://support.apple.com/downloads/#leopard for downloads and find, among other things, the 10.5.8 combo updater that works on PPC machines, plus security, QuickTime and other updates. Going from 10.5.1 to 10.5.8, there will probably be a bunch of things that you should install. Being off the internet with the machine, you can't have Software Update sort it out, so something might get missed, unfortunately.
My suggestion is this: if it looks like you might need a download, get it onto that disc.

Win 7 Pro not connecting to remote Win 7 pro via port 3389

I have a new Dell XPS 8700 Win Pro 64 bit that will not connect to work machine of same specs, i.e, XPS 8700 Win 7 Pro. Ironically an old lap top running XP Pro
will connect to work computer. I have a new Dell laptop with Win 8.1 pro that will not connect either. I tried everything, uninstalled Symantec End point, shut off the Windows Firewall, did a complete
hardware check via Dell Diagnostics, made sure network discovery was on as well as all remote services, turned on RD, changed every setting on the RD dialog box, pinged the external IP and it timed out. None of the forums seem to have an answer and I
am at wits end. I set up 15 machines at work under Win 7 for RD and all are working with Win 7 Pro.

Hello Al Wayne,
What is your current situation?
Please share us more information for better analyzation as Frederik Long mentioned.
Do you mean that the Dell XPS 8700 and laptop can’t RDP to work Windows 7 machines, but the Windows XP laptop can RDP to?
Please take the following steps for troubleshooting:
1. Share us the result of command ipconfig /all in the source and destination computers
2. Check if we can ping the Windows 7 machines from the Dell XPS 8700 and laptop

Error message "not connected to internet" when trying to sign in to BB id with Mac laptop

I have a Mac laptop and was forced to remove the original BB Link OS when the Z10 launched. I replaced the OS with the current one but now it doesn't allow me to use my Mac's computer name eg. John Smith's Mac book. I can only use a single name. I suspect that is why I'm not getting the itune's library to load. Also, I can't sign into my BB id, I get a message that says I'm not connected to the internet. I've taken the firewall off as I heard that was a solution with Windows but it didn't work. Any ideas?

i have the same problem. I have window 7 pc. I had to use internet to download link so i don't understand why it is not allowing me to use link or do set up. I uninstalled my previous bb desktop driver in hopes that would help. It didn't. I appreciate any help on this forum

Can not connect wireless through Bootcamp Windows XP to Timecapsule?

Any help would be appreciated.
I recently purchased an iMac with Leopard (10.5.2). Today, I used Bootcamp to install Windows XP with SP2. I created a FAT partition of 32 gigs and followed all of the steps (including installing drivers off of MAC OS installation disk 1 while on initial XP boot up).
My wireless network is on a Timecapsule and is "WPA Personal secured". The Mac OS detects the network and connects instantly, my work laptop PC detects the network and connects instantly. However, the newly installed XP detects the wireless network but will not connect. When I try to connect to the network, I receive an error message that basically states "unable to connect...". I do not even get to a screen that asks for me to enter a network key or password. When I try to connect to two other networks in the neighborhood, I at least get the network key screen.
I have gone into the Windows network tools and have tried to manually configure the connection, but I still get the same problem. I thought maybe I had "WPA2 Personal" enabled as the security setting for the network (XP does not support WPA2 out of the box) , but I have it as "WPA Personal".
Can't figure it out. I am new to Macs (about 1 month). The reason I switched was because I could run both Leopard and XP.
Best regards,

Solved my own problem.
FYI
Even though my security settings on my Timecapsule are listed as "WPA Personal", my work PC Laptop kept detecting as "WPA2 Personal". I even removed all security settings from the Timecapsule and my laptop still detected as "WPA2".
I know that XP does not support WPA2 out of the box.
I hooked directly into the Timecapsule via an ethernet cable while in Windows environment. Thankfully, I was able to access the internet. I went to Microsoft and did a search for WPA2 patches for XP. Found one that allows XP wireless connection to WPA2. I installed the patch and was able to detect and connect wirelessly to Timecapsule from XP.
After two days, I have come to the firm believe (don't know the technical reasons why) that Timecapsule is a WPA2 device and that the XP patch is the only way to create initial connectivity. It is sort of ironic that although I wanted to connect wirelessly, I had to first connect via an ethernet hard connection.
Solve one problem, left with another. I have a Epson all-in-one scanner, printer, copier hooked to the Timecapsule. My iMac picks it up fine wirelessly but I am getting nothing on XP. Hopefully it is a simple driver download issue.
