Solaris10 Update 10 (08/11)  No Disks Found error vm3.0.1

I have successfully installed Sol11 Exprress and Oracle Linux 6.1 in VM 3.0.1 using ISO method.
My setup includes iSCSI devices and a HA config.
However, everything I’ve tried with the newly released Solaris 10 R10 (08/11) it fails to finish installing with a No hard disks found error and the install aborts.
I’ve tried Xen HVM and HVM PV Drives Domain types with same results.
Has anybody been able to install this release of Solaris in OracleVM 3.0.1?
Edited by: user10052240 on 22-Sep-2011 9:47 PM

Still no luck, I get through the installation until it asks about CDROM media, then I get a pop up window with the "No Disks found" eror, after that the install exists to xterm window.
Here's my vm.cfg in this instance I did not change xvd to hd as all my attempts to change this cause vm not to boot.
-thanks for any advise.

  • "No Disk Found" error during installation of Solaris 10[11/06] on HP 6710b

    Hallo Guys,
    I am trying to install Solaris 10 on my HP 6710b lap top but it fails with "No Disk Found" error.
    I used "Solaris 10 support tool" to check my system and it reports that my system is supported.
    You can find the report bellow. I am sure that my disk is OK and I am also using "CD-ROM" option in BIOS for installing solaris from my Solaris DVD.
    I have also updated the drivers using "CPQary3-1.71-solaris10-i386".
    Please help me.
    Thanks,

  • V440 No Disks Found Error

    Hey all,
    I have 2 v440 with 2 disks in slot 0 & 1(in each node). I'm attempting to install S10u8, but I'm getting an error saying, "No Disks Found" during the initial install.
    On the 1st node I was able to install it on one system, but it only saw c1t1d0 and does not see c0t0d0. I've done devfsadm and no go. I have the latest patches installed as well as the latest OBP and firmware/patch installed.
    Also, the system does have the latest firmware-version for the v440 issues.
    prtconf -vp | grep 'firmware-version:'
    firmware-version: '1.03.11.01'
    The 2nd node is the one that is giving me the "No Disks Found" error.
    Has anyone experienced this before?

    Hello,
    On the 1st node I was able to install it on one system, but it only saw c1t1d0 and does not see c0t0d0.
    Is this a typo (c0 and c1, should read c0t0d0 and c0t1d0) ? If yes, reseat the disks (as Martin already suggested).
    Otherwise do you expect to see some of the internal disks on one controller and the remaining on the other ?
    After reviewing the "Matrix of Recognized Device Paths"-InfoDoc, the SCSI backplane is attached to one channel of the SCSI controller. The second channel is the external connector on the back.
    *Please post the output of probe-scsi-all or at least confirm that the disks are displayed at the ok-prompt.*
    Alterrnatively review the disk status via ALOM, this allows to get the information even on production systems without bringing them down.

  • No disk found error

    Hi guyz,
    I am trying to install Solaris 8 in a compaq machine. The installer started and proceeded until setting up of Time Zone. After that I got the following error:
    No disk found. Check cable or connection.
    Please help me to correct this error.
    regards,
    Amin

    Did you check that your compaq machine has a Solaris supported disk controller?
    http://www.sun.com/bigadmin/hcl/
    Does the vendor (Compaq / HP) provide drivers for the disk controller, in case the standard stuff included
    with Solaris doesn't support the disk controller?

  • Error Message - No Disk Found

    I plugged in my ipod (60gig) and I got the message that no disk found. I installed the lastest ipod software, still same prob. I then reset the ipod and same problem I uninstalled itunes and reinstalled it and it worked for a couple of hours and then I got the same message. In the mean time it freezes up the itunes application and when I try closing it I get the message that itunes is not responding. I have to do a hard shut down and restart my pc. It works fine with just itunes, but as soon as I plug the ipod in it freezes then giving me the no disk found error message. Anyone know why this would happen? I have had it just over a month and this is the first time this has been happening.

    Does the problem link download a file? Firefox remembers the last download location on a site-by-site basis, and it's possible that location existed temporarily but no longer exists.
    If it's not a download, if you hover your mouse over the link, does Firefox show that as part of the URL (down toward the bottom of the browser)?

  • No disks found during installation (x86)

    Hello,
    I'm trying to install Solaris 10 on a x86 home computer. I'm not very familiar with Solaris, only Linux/GNU, Windows (eek) and some MacOS.
    When I'm installing I get the "No disks found" error.
    I have 2 SCSI disks hooked up with VIA VT8237 chipset (integrated Serial ATA/RAID controller) and the cd-rom (actually a DVD burner) on IDE.
    Could someone help me

    The "smartii" driver version 2.20 that I found on HP's web site at:
    http://h18007.www1.hp.com/support/files/server/us/download/16328.html
    contains the following file:
    DU/sol_28/i86pc/Tools/Boot/smartii/smartii.itu
    I'm a bit surprised that the driver package version mentioned inside
    that file is "1.1.1" (and not "2.20"). I'm not sure if this a packaging
    error by HP?
    Anyway, according to that smartii.itu file, the following PCI devices
    are supported by the "smartii" driver:
    PCI Vendor / Device / Description
    ==================================================
      0e11  4033     "Compaq Smart Array 3100ES Controller"
      0e11  4032     "Compaq Smart Array 3200 Controller"
      0e11  4034     "Compaq Smart Array 221 Controller"Can you please check (using the MSDOS "prtpci.exe" utility, or
    Linux "lspci -nv") if your compaq raid array controller uses one
    of the above three PCI vendor/device ids?

  • Does anyone know how to solve: "Firmware update failure. Disk write error"?

    Hi all,
    Here is the list of all what went wrong and where I am now:
    1. My Ipod worked well
    2. I wanted to update it, you know, the normal thing with Itunes
    3. Every time I tried, my computer froze. I was unable to add only one song (both automatically and manually).
    4. I took my external drive (where my music is) at work and tried again: same result.
    5. I decided to run the Updater I have on the CD that came with the Ipod.(2005-02-07; I usually avoid the newer version, having had once a problem when putting a newer version of Updater).
    6. The Updater was unable to operate any action on my Ipode (I don't remember the messages now).
    7. Like I tried what I describe here above like a hundred time. I decided to format the Ipod with Windows (My Computer, right click on the Ipod, format).
    8. It did and now I have only the famous folder with an exclamation mark on my Ipod.
    9. Now when I am running the Updater, it says it cannot Restore the factory settings giving this message "Firmware update failure. Disk write error".
    I would appreciate any help because, during the last 2 hours, I read and tried all I found on the Support Help here on the Apple web side without any result yet.
    Thank a lot for your answer

  • "The iPod **** cannot be updated. The required file cannot be found" Error

    Hello,
    Upon doing a 'zero-all bits' reformatting of my 5G iPod with Disk Utility and using the 'Restore' feature in iTunes 7, every time I sync my iPod with iTunes, I get an error message after the sync in the form of
    "The iPod ** cannot be updated. The required file cannot be found"
    and photos, contacts, and calendars are not synchronizing. I tried a second 'Restore' attempt but to no avail. Previous to reformatting my 5G iPod, I've not seen this error message.
    I would be grateful if someone could offer any clues. Many thanks.

    A little update.
    Upon reinstalling iTunes 7, deleting my iTunes-related .plist files, and reparing permissions on my hard drive, I can now sync my contacts and calendars with my 5G iPod.
    As for Photos, the "required file cannot be found" error seems to be due to the default setting in the 'Photos' tab, 'Sync photos from:' pull-down menu to 'iPhoto'. If I choose my 'Pictures' folder, photo synchronizing works, albeit including everything in my iPhoto library, including originals and modified versions of the photos.
    I can only surmise that the default setting for synchronizing photos is somehow buggy in iTunes 7. I guess I'll just wait for an update.

  • Time machine fails backing up with a "backup disk not found" error after upgrade to Lion 10.7.2

    Time machine fails backing up with a "backup disk not found" error after upgrade to Lion 10.7.2. I've erased and reformatted the drive; reconnected Time Machine(it saw it) and began a new backup. The backup starts again but fails before completing with backup drive not found error. I used the 10.7.2 combo update. Any help on how to fix this problem would be appreciated.

    Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!
    After waiting since October for a fix, I have now upgraded the firmware on the Time Capsule and installed the new Airport Utility, released yesterday, and the situation is even worse.
    Up until now, the Airport Utility had an option to disconnect all drives manually and the Time Capsule would then work until the next reboot – a temporary (?) work-around.
    Now that option does not exist in the new-look Airport Utility. And the Airport Utility installation can’t be rolled back and the old utility won’t restore.
    The sparesbundle is still not accessible. Anyone worked out a work-around in the new environment yet?
    I have another Time Machine backup working fine to a trusty old Lacie Drive so erased the one on my Time Capsule to see if that works. I have renamed the Capsule and the Time Capsule Drive.  But to build another full backup will take at least two days and I shall be away from tomorrow and am reluctant to leave the Capsule and computer up and running for a week. And I’ll bet the sparsbundle will still be nowhere to be found.
    How can Apple screw up so badly when they are to become the richest company in the entire world and – soon – will have more cash in the bank than the entire United States? Can’t they afford someone who really can sort this out? Especially when a Firewire connected hard drive – my trusty and simple LaCie – works fine.
    Words, almost, fail me.

  • Getting firmware update error. disk write error message

    i installed the lastest ipod shuffle update and when I try to restore ipod shuffle I get the error message "firmware update error. disk write error" have no idea what to do. ipod does not show up in itunes

    ok, someone else with similiar problem, I just opened the box 5 days ago, installed iTunes (the June 2005 version) that came on CD with it, ran iTunes, downloaded some music, plugged in Shuffle, goto download, fails, no device found, can see it under XP ok, goto apple.com to find support FAQ, I then ran up Ipod Updater, thinking that since it was new, firmware must be recent (little did I know ) so I thought do the Restore straight off, it started, then failed with the "disk write error" and havent been able to talk with iPod Updater since, then tried installing iPodUpdater to another PC, no luck, then downloaded later versions of iTunes and uPdater, installed on a 3rd PC, same deal, unable to communicate to Shuffle, rang phone support, spoken to two different support people, finally they agree its faulty (something I figured out 4 days ago) and suggest I return it to Apple for replacement, and fill out a Service Request form, which opened a can of new worms, like there is no "Warranty Replacement" option, lots of questions like Credit Card details and nowhere to actually define that I have a "faulty" or "dead" or Shuffle to return and they obviously did not read the comments, that were requested, as they simply sent docking station in the mail, so now back to square one, trying to lodge a Service Request to "replace" a brand new, dead shuffle. Not having a nice iPod experience here !!, but Itunes is good, although expecting it will take a couple weeks all up before I get a working Shuffle to actually download to. Tried again phone support, to sort out this mess, waited in queue, then line goes dead. Oh Well ... I blame my daughter for this heartache, she insisted on having an iPod.

  • Failed to update - disk write error (WinXP Pro)

    These are the steps I performed to get my Nano in it's current state of displaying the contact "www.apple.com/support/ipod" error message.
    When I bought it last November, the itunes on the CD was outdated and needed updating. Today, after a fresh install of WinXP, I decided to be "smart" and simply download the latest itunes for windows to save some steps.
    After installing itunes and rebooting, I plugged the Nano in and discovered it was not recognized. (I hadn't realized the driver was not loaded when I install itunes)
    I inserted the original CD and accepted the defaults - the nano was recognized and I could view the files via itunes.
    I attempted to add a song - and received an error "disk write error" from itunes.
    itunes informed me that my Nano needed an update, so I proceeded to download the updater - hoping that would fix things.
    The updater errored our stating it had a write error also.
    At this point, my Nano was now displaying the !folder error with the support url.
    I have attempted to run the "restore" function of the updater and that fails to work also.
    The battery in the ipod shows fully charged, and I have rebooted the PC numerous times and re-installed itunes twice.
    I have attempted the "select+menu" reset and that just results in returning to the "!folder" error.
    I have also tried forcing it into disk mode - which it is now in - this made no difference in the update attempt either.
    Finally, the Nano does show up as a drive under windows, however, windows says it needs formatting, and so far I have declined to allow it to proceed.
    Suggestions are much appreciated - I'm hoping it is not so badly screwed up I need to send it in for service/replacement.

    I found my answer here:

    Someone else had the same difficulty and allowed windows to format the disk - and then restore worked.
    I tried the same - and voila! Restore worked, Nano is now good as new again
