Configuring an array The HP Smart Array B110i SATA RAID Controller supports SATA drives only. For the most efficient use of drive space, all drives within an array should have approximately the same capacity. Each configuration utility treats every physical drive in an array as if it has the same capacity as the smallest drive in the array. Any excess capacity of a particular drive cannot be used in the array. Therefore, the capacity is unavailable for data storage. The more physical dri

Replacing, moving, or adding hard drives Recognizing hard drive failure CAUTION: Sometimes, a drive that has previously been failed by the controller may seem to be operational after the system is power-cycled or (for a hot-pluggable drive) after the drive has been removed and reinserted. However, continued use of such marginal drives may eventually result in data loss. Replace the marginal drive as soon as possible. The HP Smart Array B110i SATA RAID Controller supports drive L

• RAID 0 configurations cannot tolerate drive failure. If any physical drive in the array fails, all RAID 0 logical drives in the same array also fail. • RAID 1 configurations can tolerate one drive failure. If one physical drive in a RAID 1 configuration fails, the RAID volume is still intact as a degraded RAID 1. • RAID 1+0 configurations can tolerate up to two drive failures as long as no failed drives are mirrored to one another. A RAID 1+0 configuration of four drives consists of tw

Replacing hard drives If you are replacing a drive in a fault-tolerant configuration while the system is powered down, a POST message appears when the system is powered up. When this message appears, press the F1 key to enable automatic data recovery. If you do not enable automatic data recovery, the logical volume remains in a ready-to-recover condition, and the same POST message appears when the system is restarted. In RAID 1 configurations, you can replace one failed drive. In RAID 1

• The brand, model, and age of the drives • The amount of unused capacity on the drives Allow approximately 15 minutes per gigabyte for the rebuild process to complete. System performance is affected during the rebuild, and the system is unprotected against further drive failure until the rebuild has finished. Therefore, replace drives during periods of low activity, when possible. When automatic data recovery has finished, the state of the logical volume is updated in ACU/ACU-CLI /age

You might be able to enable a recently failed drive temporarily by cycling the server power. To cycle the server power: 1. Power down the server. 2. Remove the replacement physical drive (the one undergoing a rebuild), and then reinstall the drive that it is replacing. 3. Power up the server. If the newly failed drive is operational, do the following: 1. Back up any unsaved data. 2. Remove the original drive that was being replaced, and then reinsert the replacement physical drive.

2. Power down the system. 3. Move the drives. 4. Power up the system. 5. Observe the POST messages: o If a 1785 POST message appears, the drive array did not configure properly. Continue with step 6. o If a 1724 or 1727 POST message appears, drive positions were changed successfully and the configuration was updated. Continue with step 7. 6. If the array did not configure properly, do the following: a. Power down the system immediately to prevent data loss. b. Return the drives to th
