8. Use the FORMAT command to format the DOS partition to include the
necessary files to make the partition bootable. For example:
FORMAT C: /s
9. Copy SERVER.EXE, the required disk drivers, LAN drivers, and utility
NLMs that should reside on the DOS partition from the Novell SSD.
10. Copy any other necessary information to the DOS partition, then reboot
the system. Then start the NetWare server. The STARTUP.NCF file may
need to be created.
Recovering Drives Configured for NetWare Fault Tolerance
If no fault tolerance for the drives connected to the device is chosen and
NetWare mirroring or NetWare controller duplexing is configured, perform
the following steps to recover the data after a drive failure:
1. Identify the failed physical drive that caused the NetWare device to be
deactivated. Record the device number and device name of the failed
logical drive. For example:
NWPA: [V503-A2-D1:0] Compaq SMART-2 Slot 8 Disk 2 NFT
The failure messages are recorded on the server console and in the
server error log file, which may be viewed using the NWADMIN utility
(4.x). Use this information later to create a valid partition.
2. Load INSTALL.NLM and NWCONFIG for NetWare 5.x and select the
Disk Options Mirroring menu. Select the mirrored logical partition that
was affected by the drive failure (See step 1). Record the device number
and partition number of the operational logical drive in this mirrored
group. This information will be used later to remirror the repaired
logical drive. For example:
NWPA: [V503-A2-D1:0] Compaq SMART-2 Slot 8 Disk 2 NFT
3. Delete the unavailable (possibly out of sync) device from the Mirror
Partition group. This device is unavailable due to the drive failure.
4. Record the drive bay location of the failed physical drive. The new
physical drive must be inserted in this drive bay.
5. If the failed drive is hot-pluggable, go to step 6. Otherwise, schedule
server down time, take the server offline, and power off the unit.
6. Insert the replacement physical drive in the drive bay where the failed
drive was located. The physical drive must be of the same capacity as
the failed drive. Be sure that all cable connections are secure.
