Proliant server will not accept new hard disks in RAID 1+0?
- by Leigh
I have a HP ProLiant DL380 G5, I have two logical drives configured with RAID. I have one logical drive RAID 1+0 with two 72 gb 10k sas 1 port spare no 376597-001.
I had one hard disk fail and ordered a replacement. The configuration utility showed error and would not rebuild the RAID. I presumed a hard disk fault and ordered a replacement again. In the mean time I put the original failed disk back in the server and this started rebuilding. Currently shows ok status however in the log I can see hardware errors.
The new disk has come and I again have the same problem of not accepting the hard disk.
I have updated the P400 controller with the latest firmware 7.24 , but still no luck.
The only difference I can see is the original drive has firmware 0103 (same as the RAID drive) and the new one has HPD2.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance
