There is 1 drive with existing data on your LenovoEMC px6-300d.

Hi,
on the display of my px6-300d there is an error: "There is 1 drive with existing data on your LenovoEMC px6-300d".
Firmware version is 4.0.8.23976.
When I logon to web page of the device and click on the error message, I can see Storage Pool SP1 with capacity of 10.84TB of which 10.84TB is available. Drive 1 is "shaded", drives 2-6 are "A"
However there are no volumes there...
In the event log I can see following events (logon events removed):

I have spoken to an admin who reported this issue today in the morning. He has told me that he had spotted the problem on 7:03 am when one of virtual machines with a drive on px6 failed. He was waiting and on 8:29 am he restarted the device and after restart he started storage verification. When it finished (7:33 pm) he again restarted the device. There are no new error events in the event log, however I cannot see any data on the device.
When I click on drive 1 in Drive Management, I get a message "This drive contains existing data that must be overwritten before it can be used. Are you sure you want to overwrite the existing data?"
Does it mean that before RAID rebuild px6 requires approval to delete the drive with recoverable error (as seen on6:46 am in event log) and rebuild RAID? Should I click YES? I hope I will not loose the data.
Best regards,
Marcel

Hello vinaykumaar
I recommend that you power down the unit and swap the affected hard disk to another drive bay to see if that prevents the unit from restarting.
Then try allowing the unit to overwrite the specific drive.  On a px unit this would be done via the storage pool information overview under drive management.  On a ix unit you would go to Drive Management>Settings, check the "add disks to storage system..."  then click apply.  This will overwrite the disk marked by the green stripes.
If the above options do not help I recommend that you contact Lenovo Support in your region for further assistance.

  • Autofilling cells with existing data above in column? Numbers 2.0 did it, seems lost in 3.0

    Autofilling cells with existing data above in column? Numbers 2.0 did it, seems lost in 3.0
    Hello,
    Just upgraded to Numbers 3.0 and use it for keeping the books on my business. When I input my receipts at the end of the day in to Numbers, it used to autofill the cell with suggestions as I type using existing data that is present in the same column within the table.
    For example, I purchase parts from "Parts Store". Before instead of typing the entire phrase, I could just input the letter P and "Parts Store" would instantly pop up as a suggestion. I could hit enter and I would move on to the next cell. Made inputing data a lot easier.
    It worked in 2.0, but seems lost in 3.0. Is there a way to turn this on? I tried searching with no luck.
    Thanks for your help!
    AJ

    Hi AJ,
    Cells formatted as pop-up are designed for this purpose, to choose from a list of repeating values. Even less typing.  I like them better myself.  No typos.
    In the new Numbers hitting the spacebar doesn't activate a list so you have to go to the trackpad or mouse to make a pick from the list. It's very fast for me, but that depends on your setup and habits.

  • RAID partitioning with existing data

    Hi,
    I'm planning on resizing my OWC Mercury Elite Qx2 (RAID 5, 8TB( 6TB)) to 1TB partitions each in order to avoid the FW800 issue, which slows the port speed down. Only problem is, there's a fair amount of data on the drives (approx. 65% used space).
    Now I'm not sure, whether it is safe or not to repartition with the data on it. I got a backup of all the files, but all on different drives. Recopying them to the RAID would be a pain.
    I tested the above with a 2TB (half full) drive creating three partitions. The speed increased significantly up to 20%. Do you think I could achieve the same with a RAID5 or are there other issues involved I haven't thought of?
    Any hint would be greatly appreciated.

    There are lots of workarounds:
    Use Disk Utility running from a DVD.
    Use Disk Utility running from an external drive.
    Use Disk Utility running from another Mac using FireWire target disk mode.
    Split the source mirror, remove one source drive and copy from one instead of the Mirrored pair.
    Copy the mirrored pair onto a backup. Remove the pair and restore from the backup.
    depending on which Mac model you have, use Optical drive connectors (2009 or later) or "hidden" ODD connectors to add an additional drive.

  • Update new field with existing data programmatically

    I have a requirement to write a code that update an existing lookup field.
    We are running sharepoint 2010. We have a content type, which is used throughout all the sites. The content type has a field called Product, which is a lookup field for all the products we have. The field also contains subproducts. For example, a product
    by name PR1000 has a subproduct PR1010 all in the same drop down menu.
    Now we want to change this grouping and separate them based on product and subproduct. I have created new field called Parent Product (PP) and Child Product(CP).
    I would like to programmatically update the Parent Product field with Product and Child PRoduct field with child product if any. So here is how it works; if an existing item or document has product PR1010, I would to update PP with PR1000 and CP with 1010.
    The problem I am having in order to start this project is the product field is part of every document library and lists and there are 1000s of items with data for product.
    Please help with ideas or suggestions. I am thinking of a feature event receiver, which when activated will automatically update every item with product field not empty.
    Thanks for your help in advance.

    As Bruno suggested ,if its on time activity and on the all site then so go with Powershell 
    script. use feature event receiver when it require on the selected site and if this require to extend
    other sites so that contol will be at your end,else you need to again modified the powershell script.

  • I have a hard drive with my data from my previous PC, it won't recognise on my macbook!!

    Please please please help me
    I have all my data from my previous PC laptop from when it died and its on an external hard drive.

    I have been on hold to mac online support for over 30 mins now...
    Any help would be great.
    Being a brand new mac user I have no idea.

    Sorry I should have said that I took my macbook and the external hard drive into the mac store today.
    I have booked an appoitment to go into to see them again tomorrow, if they cant get it to work.
    It's possible is the PC drive is formatted NTFS by Windows.
    Mac's can't read NTFS format natively, third party software has to be installed on your Mac.
    The third party NTFS software could be installed on all the Apple Store computers and not all the Genius Folks might not be aware of this.

    If it's defective hardware, I don't blame you.
    My suggestion is to have the Genius Folks transfer your PC data using one of their Mac's with the NTFS software installed. Then have them re-format your drive for your Mac so you can continue to use it.
    You can also choose to install the NTFS software, that might be what your problem really is.
    Hope this helps.

  • How to add primary key for table with existing data?

    The table is occupied data already. There was no primary key before, so for every column, there are some duplicate values.
    I want to add a new column, which should be of the datatype integer, and can automatically increment, starting from 001. I tried this in Oracle SQL Developer, but it says "ORA-01758: table must be empty to add mandatory (NOT NULL) column". How can I do it? Thanks!

    Hello, don't call the column ID, that could be an ID relating to anything. Perhaps be a little more specific like emp_id .
    Then to update it:
    UPDATE Employee emp
      SET emp_id = (
      SELECT row_num
        FROM (
      SELECT ROWID,
                 ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY ROWID) row_num
        FROM Employee emp2) emp2
      WHERE emp.ROWID = emp2.ROWID);That will assign a new EMP_ID for each, beginning at 1.
    Then:
    ALTER TABLE Employee MODIFY emp_id NOT NULL;
    ALTER TABLE Employee ADD CONSTRAINT EMP_PK PRIMARY KEY (EMP_ID);Then create a sequence for future population of the Employee table:
    CREATE SEQUENCE emp_seq START WITH <maximum value of emp_id + 1>;

  • HT1766 I am trying to restore a new replacement phone from an icloud backup but it is telling me there is a problem with backup data. The backup was done under 7.1 and I think the new phone still just has 7.04. My itunes backup was lost last week...sugges

    I am trying to restore from icloud but it appears the 7.1 it was backed up in and the 7.04 on the new phone won't allow it. My itunes library was lost last week due to computer crashing and having to be restored. I have a clean very current icloud back up done on March 21st but I cant seem to get it there. Suggestions please?

    You will have to update the iPhone to iOS 7.1 if that is the iOS the backup was done in. You cannot restore a newer iOS update to a phone with older iOS. Once you update the phone, you will be able to restore the backup.

  • Help please, I need a line graph from a chart with existing data.

    I am trying to put together a form for tracking my weaight loss. I have decided on a format that I like, but I can't figure out how to create a line graph to represent the chart that collects the data. The graph will need to begin with the "start weight" and track all chages throught the 42 cells until the final "net loss."
    Does anyone know how to set this up as a line graph? Your help would be much appreciated, thank you in advance.

    Skipping ahead and assuming I picked the correct direction then i have a possible solution:
    You need to get the weight loss numbers into a single column. If the table of 42 cells is called Table 1 and the table with the start weight is Table 2 and we call our new table Table 5:
    Cell B2 of Table 5 = Table 2::A2
    Cell B3 of Table 5 =B2+OFFSET(Table 1 :: $B$2,MOD(ROW()-3,7),QUOTIENT(ROW()-3,7))
    Fill down with that formula

    Hi all,
    have you find a fix for this issue? Im facing the same situation, using Complex type, and String data type both in the service and Bi publisher. We are consuming CC&B services, and we have noticed this error appears when BIPublisher is running on WebLogic (10.3) but it does not appear when BIPublisher is running on OC4J , of course running the same report on both application servers.
    Any idea?

  • Can Leopard partition a backup drive with Tiger on it?

    I am going to be upgrading tp 10.5.4 on my main HD. I've cloned my whole 10.4.9 system to a 2nd internal drive a while back, but did not create a small partition for a SuperDuper Sandbox at that time. To save myself the time it will take to format the backup drive, partition it, then reclone my Tiger system can I...once I successfully upgrade to Leopard, use Leo to put a small partition on my backup HD, with Tiger on it, WITHOUT erasing the backup drive?

    Karen,
    First, and just to clarify things, your drive is already partitioned. It just has a single partition. In the "Partition" tab of Leopard's Disk Utility, you'll see a graphical representation of that partition (just as you would in earlier versions of Disk Utility). The difference is that there will appear a re-sizing "grab tab" at the bottom-right of the icon that represents your current partition (it looks just like the "grab tab" at bottom-right of any application window).
    If we are simply re-partitioning a drive, we can choose a new partition scheme using the appropriate pull-down menu, and that scheme will be reflected in the graphical representation (showing however many volumes, aka "partitions" we choose), and they can be adjusted for size. At some point, we would click "Apply" to begin re-partitioning according to our settings. In this scenario, any and all data on the drive would be destroyed.
    In your case, however, you'll be dynamically adding a partition to a "live" drive. You'll start by using the "grab tab" to make the one existing volume smaller, by however much space you want to allocate to the volume you'll add. Next, you'll use another new feature in Leopard's "partition" pane, the "+" button below the representation. This adds a new volume in the unallocated space you will have provided by making the first volume smaller. Click the "Apply" button, and your changes will be written to the drive (cross your fingers). Provided all works as intended, whatever data exists on the first volume will not be affected.
    With 121 GBs free, you can theoretically create a second volume of 121 GBs. However, I wouldn't expect this to happen in practice. Some of that 121 GBs of free space will actually exist "in the spaces" between the data/files already written to the drive. How much of your free space exists in this state depends entirely on how you have been using the drive, for how long, and the file sizes involved. If, for example, you have ever filled the current single volume entirely, it is likely that some files reside near the end of the drive, with almost all of your free space "in the middle." In this case, Disk Utility will balk at allowing you to make that volume smaller.
    Since you have recently "cloned" Tiger to this drive, it is reasonable to assume this won't be the case for you (the drive was probably erased at the time, right?). So, I think you have a good chance of success. And, since you have everything backed up on optical media, convenience will be the issue, not data security.

  • K7N2-ILSR: adding S-ATA drive to existing system

    Hello everyone,
    I have a system based on the K7N2-ILSR, Athlon 2500+, 2x160GB IDE Harddrives.
    Now I wanted to connect a S-ATA drive (with data on it) from a friend, but I can't get it to show under Windows XP Pro. I've installed the drivers for the Promise chipset and this is shown in the device manager. I understand that you have to create a "1 disk array" before the drive can be used but I can't afford to loose the data on it. Is there any possibility to connect the drive without having to format it?
    Thanks in advance,

  • Best way to give a default value to a New Column with existing rows

    Adding some columns to SQL tables with existing data rows. There are also views created from these tables. The views are used in some report/query software so NULL values are not good. Interested in learning about the best way to set a default value. 
    These are the ways that I can think of
    1) ALTER TABLE using the DEFAULT to add the column and set the default value
    ++ Adds a constraint which is not terrible. Constraints are just not used much in this shop.
    2) ALTER TABLE to add the column then do an UPDATE statement to update the values
    ++ might be an issue for tables with millions of rows
    3) ALTER TABLE to add the column then use ISNULL in the CREATE VIEW

    It is a large table with 444 columns and max row size of 2268. 907k records took 1 minute 38 seconds to UPDATE the column. I have about 12 fields to add to this table and about 44 tables (not all this large of course) so it will take some time to
    UPDATE.  Although ... i just tried updating 3 columns in a single UPDATE and it took 1 minute 36 seconds. So If I did all 12 fields in a single UPDATE it would be about the same time as a single Field.  I will think about it.
