Click the [Refresh] button to update the System RAID
page with the current drive status. If the display shows
two healthy disks, then drive has been successfully
recovered. If not, proceed to step 4.
4
Using the Administration web page, record the serial
number of the healthy OS drive (the serial number of
the faulty OS drive will not be displayed).
5
Create a checkpoint (see HDXC-C030 HDXC-B030
HDXC X030 HDXC-L030 Installation Manual for
details ) as a fall-back recovery procedure.

Power down the server (see “How to power off the
server” on page 45 ).
7
Identify the faulty drive to be replaced (the serial
number is printed on both the top and the front of the
disks) - remember the serial number of the
healthy
drive was noted in step 4.
8
Replace the faulty OS drive (see “OS HDD
replacement” on page 87 ).
Before changing the OS drive, ensure that the drive
and motherboard connectors are properly mated. If
any were loose, re-power and check the operation of
the server before changing the disk.
9
Power on the system and recover/rebuild the new disk
by clicking the [Maintenance] button on the
System >
Diagnostics > System RAID Administration web
page (as described in steps 1 - 3 above).
Recovery from complete OS drive failure
If an OS disk failure causes the server to lock-up, the
recovery action is as follows:
1
Restart the server by pressing the front panel POWER
button.
2
Using the Administration web page, record the serial
number of the healthy OS drive (the serial number of
the faulty OS drive will not be displayed).
3
Create a checkpoint (see HDXC-C030 HDXC-B030
HDXC X030 HDXC-L030 Installation Manual for
details ) as a fall-back recovery procedure.
4
Power down the server (see “How to power off the
server” on page 45 ).
5
Identify the faulty drive to be replaced (the serial
number is printed on both the top and the front of the
disks) - remember the serial number of the healthy
drive was noted in step 2.
6
Replace the faulty OS drive (see “OS HDD
replacement” on page 87 ).
Before changing the OS drive, ensure that the drive
and motherboard connectors are properly mated. If
any were loose, re-power and check the operation of
the server before changing the disk.
7
Power on the system and recover/rebuild the new disk
by clicking the [Maintenance] button on the
System >
Diagnostics > System RAID Administration web
page (as described in steps 1 - 3 above).
Recovery from a dual complete OS drive
failure
In this event no control of the server will be available after
a re-boot.
1
Power down the server (see “How to power off the
server” on page 45 ).
2
Replace the OS disk (see “OS HDD replacement” on
page 87 ).
Before changing the OS drive, ensure that the drive
and motherboard connectors are properly mated. If
any were loose, re-power and check the operation of
the server before changing the disk.
3
The OS will now have to be rebuilt using the Restore
CD and the latest Checkpoint file, a copy of which
should be found on the media RAID
(see ‘Restoring a
checkpoint file’ in the HDXC-C030 HDXC-B030
HDXC X030 HDXC-L030 Installation Manual).
The server will require monitor, keyboard and mouse
connected for Restoring a Checkpoint.
4
Insert the Restore boot-up CD into the DVD/CD drive
of the server unit.
5
Power on, or Reboot the server using the Power Up/
Shutdown page.
6
The Gentoo boot-up screen will appear and will be
displayed for approximately ten seconds. This allows
the administrator time to cancel the Restore. To
