NOTE: For a RAID 10, if a single physical disk fails in each mirrored set, the redundant virtual disk goes to a Degraded
status but data is not lost. If two physical disks fail in one of the mirrored sets, the redundant virtual disk goes to a Failed
status and data is lost.
WARNING: Found virtual disks that are degraded and failed
This warning message is displayed when multiple virtual disks are in
Degraded
and
Failed
state and
Pause if Degraded
or
Pause if
Failed
are set to
ON
at the
BIOS Configuration Utility (<Ctrl><R>)
.
The following message is displayed after the warning is displayed: --- Press <Enter> to continue, or <Ctrl><R> to enter setup --- .
Press <Enter> to allow the operating system to continue its boot, or press <Ctrl><R> to enter into the
BIOS Configuration Utility
(<Ctrl><R>)
to investigate the cause of the
Degraded
and
Failed
virtual disks.
NOTE: A boot virtual disk that is in a Failed state prevents the operating system from booting.
To investigate the cause, check for the following:
•
Whether the virtual disk is in
Degraded
status because one of the physical disks of a RAID 1 or RAID 5 virtual disk has failed, or
one of the physical disks of a RAID 10 virtual disk has failed. Press <Ctrl><R> and verify if the physical disks are offline or missing.
Remove and replace a failed physical disk. A second physical disk failure could cause a
Degraded
virtual disk to change to
Failed
status.
•
Whether the virtual disk is in a
Failed
status because one or more of the physical disks have failed. Press <Ctrl><R> and verify if
the physical disks are offline or missing. Remove and replace the failed physical disk or disks.
Other errors appearing on the BIOS screen
S130 does not display greater than ten virtual disks in the BIOS Configuration Utility
(<CTRL><R>)
Likely Cause:
The function is not supported.
Corrective Action:
Remove all physical disks except for the last one(s) added. Then proceed with deleting the virtual disks that
are not needed. Remember to take account of the virtual disks that are currently being used.
Unable to delete virtual disks when there are more than ten virtual disks present in the system
Likely cause:
The function is not supported.
Corrective Action:
Remove all physical disks except for the last one(s) added. Then proceed with deleting the virtual disks that
are not needed. Remember to take account of the virtual disks that are currently being used.
Virtual disk rebuild status in the BIOS Configuration Utility (<CTRL><R>)
Likely Cause:
Rebuild is not supported in the
BIOS Configuration Utility (<CTRL><R>)
.
Corrective Action:
Boot to a supported operating system. Rebuild starts. To view rebuild status, install a supported storage
application.
