Problem with SAS Configuration Utility

After you replaced the drive, did you rebuild the RAID array? Some of the higher end RAID controllers will try to rebuild automatically (if set to do so) but most must be rebuilt manually.

Reseat the drives, but DO NOT swap slots. Keep exact, in case of RAID configuration.

Use the Smartstart disc. It may show you the current array config.

You can find the drivers for your machine here: http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/DriverDownload.jsp?prodNameId=3432828&lang=en&cc=us&prodTypeId=12454&prodSeriesId=3432827&taskId=135 Not sure if you've tried this, but I would try initializing all the drives (i.e. format, create primary partitions) on all the drives before trying to create the RAID.

heat maybe?
try to cool the monster. Let the air flow

use this guide, this is fo the embedded sata raid controller that comes standar with the ml150 g5.

Enabling SATA RAID functionality in the BIOS Setup Utility: 1.Boot the server, and then press F10 to enter the ROM-Based Setup Utility (RBSU).
2.Go to the advanced tab.
3.Enter the IDE configuration or hard disk configuration.
4.Change the ATA/IDE configuration to enhanced or SATA controller 2 enhanced (if not available then use enabled mode).
5.Configure SATA as RAID or configure controller 1 as RAID.
6.F10 to save and exit.
7.Reboot the server.
8.During post f8 will now show up for the embedded SATA set up.
•Creating the RAID volume.
1.Enter the embedded SATA setup by pressing f8 during post.
2.Enter the array configuration utility.
3.Enter create array.
4.Create the raid volume as desired.
5.Save and exit.

i hope it helps you!!!

The porn site have installed it add-on your browser. Check and see if you can see any strange program on add and remove software program window. If you can remove it but you must be sure before doing that. Alternatively, download a malware removaMicrosoft

Try going into the RBSU(Rom based setup utility) and configuring SATA RAID in the advanced section.

This doesn't work for all versions - if it doesn't help, please be more specific about your configuration, i.e. what "G" level is the server? Hot plug or non hot plug drive? etc.

Just keep pressing F2 on startup to go to bios. In bios go to advanced screen and highlight "show raid" option. Hit enter and highlight show raid. Then save changes and exit. Press Ctrl + I when booting and you will open raid configuration utility. Make sure you backup all your files and create RDVDs before making any changes to raid.After pressing ctrl+i you will get raid configration utility. From there "delete raid" -> create new raid volume and select raid type as raid 0. Then boot from RDVDs and install operating system.Let me know if there is any trouble with that

Hi Foambob,

Try all means to get a smartstart CD.
Normally new version will be able to use on older hardware , but no guarantees.
I have always found it easier to use smartstart CD auto mode.
You can also do the install and then run ntssd to update all the drivers etc., but I don't recommend it for novices. Use the auto mode , it takes longer but safely and surely.

Good luck

Sounds like you're fixed. Great.
