Problem for IBM xSeries 226 Server

Raid w/ hard drive defunct




By itman on Sep 23, 2007

It says there is a hard drive that is defunct however the system does boot up but the application does not work and I think it is due to the oracle not being able to run. How to recover from the data corruption due to the drive failure?

Well lets make some assumptions
1. You have a Raid 5 System
2. You only have 3 drives in the Raid ARRAY
3. Only 1 drive has failed

To fix the problem you should only need to Replace the Failed Drive
Then start the raid management software or bios
Rebuild the array

If you have more than 1 drive failed in a RAID 5, and still must recover the data it is possible. But very expensive. Still fixable however.
