Raid Web Console 2 on Windows 2008 R2

webadmin@intel.com — Fri, 27 Nov 2009 10:46:08 GMT

Hi,

Did anyone succeed to install the Raid Web Console 2 on a Windows 2008 R2 Server ?

I just tried on 2 servers and the installer fails just after decompression with a generic 1603 error.

I dug deep and it seems to be a problem with the InstallShield Scripting Engine.

I tried the same package on different servers and it only fails on 2008 R2 Servers.

I also tried other LSI based packages (older Raid Web console, Megaraid Storage Manager etc. ) and they all fail in the same way.

Any idea on how to bypass that installshield incompatibility ?

TIA

Jean-Michel Digneffe

Same Result with GUI:

The only other thing to note is I tried the older version of the GUI per a friend who has a couple of these controllers and they installed with out any issues for him. I tried older version and no change but the rpm -e of the files exited with error and so now new install notes conflict of existing package. (Hense the rpm --force).

I wish their were a way to get a dependancy listing and also to clean out the packages and start fresh.

The only other thing of note is:

[root@medusa tmp]# rpm -ivh libstdc++34-3.4.0-1.i386.rpm
warning: libstdc++34-3.4.0-1.i386.rpm: Header V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 4f2a6fd2

[root@medusa tmp]#

But I did not figure that this was of much note.

BTW Thanks for the help. I am sure it is something simple.

SE7520db2 - DDR1 - Boot problems

webadmin@intel.com — Fri, 27 Nov 2009 02:45:15 GMT

You may want to check if SATA RAID is still enabled in BIOS. Press F2 to enter BIOS Setup during boot. Go to Advanced => IDE Configuration. Check if "Onboard SATA Channels" and "Configure SATA as RAID" are set to "Enabled".

Intel SS4200-E: RAID 5 Parameters?

webadmin@intel.com — Thu, 26 Nov 2009 22:47:55 GMT

Hi there!

I'm trying to recover the data on my RAID 5 that was in my SS4200-E unit.

I plugged in the 3 working drives to a PC, and ran Runtime Software RAID Reconstructor on it.

However, I still cannot find the RAID 5 array, and is asking for some RAID 5 parameters:

Block Size: 4KB?

Parity Rotation: Foward/Backward/Backward(Dynamic Disk)??

Start Sectors to probe: (it auto-suggested 7,15)

Number of Sectors to probe: (it suggested 10000)

Or does anyone know of another utility that might be able to recover the data from the RAID5 disks?

Any help is greatly apprecaited!

that would be an expensive way, which I would avoid.

SE7520BD2 and FRU/SDR - no fan throttling

kamalanathan.natesan@intel.com — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 11:41:23 GMT

Hope you have updated the firmware in the below order.

BIOS(reset) ->BMC(reset) -> FRUSDR(Ac cycle).

While updating FRUSDR please select the chenbro chassis (see the serial #) and make sure you reset the machine after updating the f/w.

If still issue is seen, please

Clear the SEL using SELVIEW tool and Do the AC cycle.

and get the SEL message. it should say exact problem.

Note: Since you said, Chenbro chassis is vaildated and running fine with other machine, i didnt do research on supported chassis.

makesure you have right CPU Heat sink ( Active/passive) - check for the supported heatsink wrt chenbro chassis.

Like to receive the SELVIew message.

S5000PSL / IRMM2 virtual DVD problem

webadmin@intel.com — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 06:12:47 GMT

That's the limitation of RMM2 with Win2K8. Currently there is no patch to fix this issue.

The workaround is to use physical DVD to install Win2K8, not by RMM2.
