F6 Change the configuration and accept the rearrangement. Press this key to modify the configuration to match
the current drive location.
You might remove the hot-swap drives from the server for security or maintenance reasons. If you replace
the drives but install them in different drive bays, you can press F6 to accept the new locations, and the
ServeRAID controller will update the configuration.
F10 Continue startup without changing the configuration. Press this key to continue without change to the
configuration.
Controller is not responding to commands. No logical drives are installed.
Explanation: The ServeRAID controller is not operational.
Action: Have the system serviced.
Error: Cannot disable this controller BIOS.
Explanation: The ServeRAID controller was unable to prevent an extra copy of its BIOS code from being stored on
the server. This condition occurs when the server contains multiple ServeRAID controllers.
Action: Have the system serviced.
Installation stopped.
Explanation: The server cannot access the ServeRAID controller.
Action: This is a follow-on message to a preceding message. Follow the Action instructions for the preceding
message to resolve the problem.
New controller installed in a configured server or drives are imported.
Explanation: When the ServeRAID controller detects that the identifiers of the drives do not match the controller
configuration information, the following message appears:
x Online drive(s) found with mismatch configuration
Examples of possible messages:
Configuration mismatch Channel 1 SCSI ID
Configuration mismatch Channel 2 SCSI ID
Action: Press one of the following keys:
F2 Detailed description. Press this key for a detailed description of the problem, such as the example
messages above.
F4 Retry. Press this key after correcting the problem. For example, press F4 after you move the physical
drive to its previously assigned location, or after you install the original physical drives back in the server.
F5 Change the configuration and set the drive to Defunct. Press this key to accept the new state that the
ServeRAID controller will assign to the drive. For example, the ServeRAID controller will assign the drive a
state of Defunct (DDD) or Empty (EMP).
Note: A physical drive in the defunct state does not necessarily mean that you need to replace the drive.
Before you replace the drive, ensure that:
1. All cables are connected properly to the backplane or system board, and to the physical drive. Also,
ensure that all cables inside the server are connected properly.
2. The hot-swap drive trays are seated properly in the drive bay.
3. If you have not already attempted to rebuild the drive, try rebuilding it. See "Rebuilding a defunct drive"
on page 105 for more information.
After you perform these steps, if the physical drive does not function properly, replace the drive.
