Hi We want to set up a back up system for our DL380 G5 media servers in cluster using the Ultrium SAS 1840 external storage. We want to have a step by step guide as (1) how to connect the hardwares (2) software installation (3) how to back up the media thanking you

Supports only HOT PLUG HDD's

bad PSU?

try to cool the monster. Let the air flow

Try to reseat the controller from the PCI slot.
Reseat the SAS cable.
Here are the drivers you may need:

update your SCSI controller drivers and power cycle the server

Mfraid the only way to erase a BIOS password is to open up the case and remove the battery from the motherboard.

Use the smart start CD!

Turn off MSA and cluster, turn on MSA and only one server, you will be able to access the data

Hi,

if you "have not" using Backup Software (e.g. Symantec Backup Exec, CA), you can try this IBM LTO-4 driver for Win2K.
