I have had server running FreeBSD-5.4p9 and it was samba file server for MS domain (about 600 people). Today we were changing power supply so we shut all servers down at 17:00. After changing of UPS we start everything up and my LSI controller starts to claim that disk and NVRAM configuration mismatch. When i tried to enter configuration console i have found out that all disks in my array are in READY state, that means they are not a part of any drive. After rebooting (via simple exitting the configuration console withiut changing anything), server stopped to claim that configuration mismutch, but shows 0 Logical drives configured (while before i have had 2 drives): Raid1 for the OS (2*140GB drives) Raid5 for the data (3*140GB drives) And one 140GB drive as a hot spare disk LSI FW version is G119 from Aug 27 2004 I'm sure that disks are still containing the information, but i do not know how to restore the LSI data on disks to boot properly or mount this drive somewhere on different system to get the data. ICP controllers support nondistructive build to build array from disks that already contain ICP information. But i have found nothing about the same function in LSI. And i'm afraid that this will erase (now i do not trust LSI) my info. I did contact LSI support but 3 people answerred that one is on the vacation, the other on the business trip and the third one is ill..... nice support. THere is nothing to say :) In case there is no way to restore my configuration and continue to use this server as it was could you please tell me the way to restore data from that drives?

I have had server running FreeBSD-5.4p9 and it was samba file server for MS domain (about 600 people). Today we were changing power supply so we shut all servers down at 17:00. After changing of UPS we start everything up and my LSI controller starts to claim that disk and NVRAM configuration mismatch. When i tried to enter configuration console i have found out that all disks in my array are in READY state, that means they are not a part of any drive. After rebooting (via simple exitting the configuration console withiut changing anything), server stopped to claim that configuration mismutch, but shows 0 Logical drives configured (while before i have had 2 drives): Raid1 for the OS (2*140GB drives) Raid5 for the data (3*140GB drives) And one 140GB drive as a hot spare disk LSI FW version is G119 from Aug 27 2004 I'm sure that disks are still containing the information, but i do not know how to restore the LSI data on disks to boot properly or mount this drive somewhere on different system to get the data. ICP controllers support nondistructive build to build array from disks that already contain ICP information. But i have found nothing about the same function in LSI. And i'm afraid that this will erase (now i do not trust LSI) my info. I did contact LSI support but 3 people answerred that one is on the vacation, the other on the business trip and the third one is ill..... nice support. THere is nothing to say :) In case there is no way to restore my configuration and continue to use this server as it was could you please tell me the way to restore data from that drives?

When you saw this mismatch, you should have went into RAID's BIOS and restored configuration from disk. Most likely the NVRAM version got corrupted. The only thing left to do is go back to controller's setup CTRL+M at bootup, select new configuration and resetup both logical drives and standby EXACTLY and I mean EXACTLY how it was setup the first time. At this point, DO NOT initialize the logical drives, just reboot the server. If you reconfigured like it was done the first time, your server should boot and see logical drives with all data intact, unless something went really wrong with the drives and the data is corrupted. Good luck, I will keep my fingers crossed for you. I had similar experience with Mylex card on live server, it wasn't fun at all.

Most likely the NVRAM version got corrupted. Tht situation is opposite. Controller "remember" the configuration, but on disks there is no RAID config (they are all just in READY state).

Thanks, i'll try to, but i'm not sure how this drives were configured. First of all it was done not by me. Then 2 drives vere changed because of disks falure and Hot spare disks were used, so which drive was in what RAID is unknown. So i hope there is some port or utility to view the data on each hard drive to determine what part of which RAID it was.

Likely the controller has some battery backed up RAM that got zapped? My guess is your disks are fine (which is why they are in ready state) but the NVRAM data evaporated -- likely the battery is dead?

THere is nothing to say :) Keep bugging them (persistently but nicely). Get them on your side. Don't get them mad or give up. Eventually they will get rid of you by passing you on to a real techie. Who will tell you what you *should* have done (after losing all your data while "helping" you -- see, he wants to understand the problem even more badly than you do but he doesn't care for your data -- after all everybody knows customers run beta sites, right?). > In case there is no way to restore my configuration and continue to use > this server as it was could you please tell me the way to restore data > from that drives? You can try putting in fresh blank drives, duplicating the exact configuration and then reconnecting your old drives. And TELL US WHAT WORKED (just on freebsd-hardware)! That is your punishment for duplicate posting.
