RAID Utility software not available in OS X Mavericks?

Up till yesterday I have been using a RAID card in my Mac Pro (Mid 2010, 4 x 1 TB SATA, initially as RAID-5, now in a RAID-10 setup) under OS X 10.8.5 without any issues, and the RAID utility allowed me to check the status od me disks, event log, and the battery status / refresh cycles for the RAID card. Last night now I upgraded to OS X Mavericks. The upgrade went well, things appear to work OK, obviously at least half of my RAID-10 array is in use — however, I can't find the RAID utility, check the status of the RAID-10 system and the battery status of the RAID card. The disk utility shows the RAID set - but none of the underlying features (individual disks and their status, logs, battery) — am I thrown back to a soft RAID, and my investment into a RAID card has evaporated?

Thanks a lot, Seliqui! the reason why I did not find it is that a) after the upgrade to Mavericks, the icon that I previously had parked in the dock no longer worked, and b) the new location for the utility can't be found anywhere on the Launchpad. I suspect both effects are an indication that they missed to add the new directory to the command path. I can hardly imagine that this was deliberate because if you have a RAID card you definitely want to have access to that utility — not just in case of a disk failure (I have had a couple of these!), but also in order to stop the user from doing things one is not supposed to do while the battery is reconditioning.

  • RAID Utility does not work after Vista upgrade

    Hi,
    I have a Qosmio G30 with 2 HD 120GB each. After I upgraded to Windows Vista from Windows XP, the Toshiba RAID Utility does not work anymore. In WXp it worked OK, but in Vista there is no way I can mirror the HD. That is, the utility itself work, but the button that should say Mirror, or something like that is not shown. I have set the drives to RAID-1 in the BIOS, but no go.
    Is there any way to get the software RAID to work again?

    Hi,
    just a little question: While installing vista, did you installed the RAID-driver at installation time? Maybe this could be the reason why RAID cannot be activated properly.
    Please give some feedback, if you installed the RAID drivers for Vista during the installation..
    Cheers

  • Raid Utility Error Message "raid utility is not supported on this computer"

    I am not doing anything that I know of, but Raid Utility keeps opening up on its own, and a message pops up multiple times a day telling me "raid utility is not supported on this computer"
    Anyone have any idea how to fix this?

    Network startup is if you want to start your macbook using a network drive.
    Keep your startup settings at your current drive.
    Raid utility doesn't apply to you since you only have one hard drive installed, unless you installed another hard drive in your optical bay.
    Fibre Channel is another type of hard drive connection via network connection.
    You can't access things you don't have installed in your macbook.  Those are there in case you decide to have a network drive start up options, a raid configuration of a fibre channel network drive.

  • RAID admin software not fixed by Quicktime 7.12

    Hi
    I too have had the RAID admin software not launch recently and all evidence points to recent Quicktime updates as discussed by others.
    The latest quicktime update does not resolve this!
    So in interests of a workaround I have written a small app which uses a terminal command listed in the thread-
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=1553067
    This app relies on the fact that the RAID admin file is resident in /Applications/Utilities/Xserve\ RAID\ Update/
    If the admin app is not here the launcher will not work!
    I have tested this on Panther 10.3.9 Server
    Drop me a line at edadams70 at gmail.com to get this launcher
    Regards
    Ed

    can you share the app with us?
    I'm on quicktime 7.1.2 and it ***** cause there is no reinstall for it. Just tomorrow i'm receiving a second 14 disk rack and i'll be damned if i can't configure it.

  • OCM exam environment software not available for download

    Hi all,
    As per the oracle 11g master certification mentioned in the certification portal, the exam will be conducted in the following environment
    3. 10.2.0.5 grid control with 11.1.0.6 as repository database.
    However 10.2.0.5/11.1.0.x grid control verison is not available for download. Kindly guide me how i can prepare my test environment for exam preparation.

    I have finally received some additional information on this topic. Here is a message from our exam developers:
    To prepare for the OCM exam, candidates should focus on mastering the tasks for each Skillset. Software can be downloaded from the Oracle Technology Network (OTN) to build a practice environment. Use the latest software available from OTN; it is not necessary to build a practice environment on the exact OS and database software versions used in the OCM exam. Later releases of Oracle server support nearly all features and functions of earlier ones; for any software version, relevant parameter values, naming differences and obsolete features may be found in the product documentation, which is available from OTN.

    I imagine millions upon millions of people are attempting to download and install it right now. Simple patience, maybe keep trying, and if possible, try a little later. Think of it as all those people lining up at Apple Stores + a few million more.

  • Dick Utility Erase Not Available

    I am giving my MBAir latest model (256 GB flash drive) to a relative. I want to erase my files using Disk Utility. When I go there the options are all greyed out. How do I erase the files  and reinstall Mountain Lion which I purchased from the App Store? Thanks.

    You cannot erase the startup volume without booting first to another disk. Furthermore, Disk Utility will not erase just your files. It can only erase the entire disk.
    Create a new user account for your relative. Log into the new account and delete your account. If you wish to erase and reinstall Mountain Lion do this:
    Install or Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion from Scratch
    Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Erase the hard drive:
      1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
      2. After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the
          left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
      3. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Optionally, click on
            the Security button and set the Zero Data option to one-pass. Click on
          the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
      4. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Install button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
                because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • Iphoto not available after upgrading to Mavericks

    I recently upgrades my iMac to Mavericks. I also upgrades my iPhoto to 9.5.1. However when I click on the icon it gives the following caution:
    "The iPhoto library is on a locked volume. Reopen iPhoto when you have read/write access, or reopen iPhoto with the Option key held down to choose another library."
    I have tried the Option key while opening iPhoto, but get the same caution. I have tried opening from the iPhoto library disk image and get the same message. I have gone to Disk Utility and  clicked on verify disk and it said all was OK. The button for Verify disc permissions was grayed out and not available.
    What else can i do to get iPhoto to work for me?
    Thanks....

    MAJOR error in over filling your HD and keeping your iPhoto library in a Boot Camp partition. Get yourself an EHD and move large libraries such as your photos, music and movies to it. This is extremely simply to do, simply get an EHD, format it for the Mac (Mac OS Extended (Journaled)) and then drag and dop the libraries to the new EHD. Then to launch each app for the first time after moving the library double click it on the EHD and the app will "remember" where the library is located.

  • Update Not Available with This Userid - Maverick Numbers

    Maverick installed on my iMac and all updates installed except Numbers. Whenever I try to update it I get a message saying, "Update not available for this userid." The Pages update went just fine. I installed both using the only Apple ID that I have ever had. Updates before installing Maverick (Mountain Lion) worked just fine. What now?

    Please test after each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved. Back up all data before making any changes. Keep in mind that no one here represents Apple or can help with customer-service issues.
    Step 1
    A purchased app can only be updated by signing in to the App Store with the same Apple ID that was originally used to buy it. There's no way around that limitation, which also applies to free apps. If you can't sign in with the buyer's ID, delete the app and reinstall it. You'll have to pay for it again, if applicable.
    Step 2
    If you get the alert when trying to update a bundled iLife app, select the Purchases page in the App Store and locate the app in your purchase history. If there's a button marked ACCEPT on the right, click it.
    If you have a used Mac, the bundled apps were linked to the original owner's Apple ID and can't be transferred to you. Reportedly, customer service has issued redemption codes to some second owners who asked, but it's not guaranteed.
    Step 3
    If you're trying to update iLife or iWork apps that were installed from a purchased DVD, or if you have a refurbished Mac bought directly from Apple, contact App Store customer service for a redemption code. You may be asked for the part number of the DVD.
    Step 4
    From the App Store menu bar, select
              Store ▹ View My Account
    Enter your Apple ID password at the prompt. At the lower right corner of the window that opens, click the Reset button. Close the window.

  • Promise SATA Raid 0+1 not available?

    I'm looking at the manual that came with my 865PE Neo2.  It says that, using the Promise controller, I can have a 2 disk RAID 0+1 array.  
    "Supports the maximum performance and creates a mirored (or fault tolerant) array (2 drives) for data security."
    However, when I'm in the FastBuild Utility, I only get the options for Performance and Security.  I do not get an option for "Performance + Security".  
    All the marketing material says this mobo supports RAID 0+1.  I just bought two brand new SATA drives to set this up.  What gives?

    On the 865PE NEO2 FIS2R board to setup a Raid0+1 you need to connect 2-SATA drives to Serial3&4 and 2 IDE drives to IDE3.
