Error Message during RAID System Configuration

If the server configured with a RAID System does not work correctly or if the utility program fails, check the following
and take an appropriate action.
The OS cannot be installed:
Is the RAID Controller correctly configured?
→ Perform the configuration properly using WebBIOS.
The OS cannot be started:
Has the BIOS setting for the RAID Controller changed?
→ Set it properly.
Does the POST recognize the RAID Controller?
→ Check that the RAID Controller is connected correctly and then turn the power ON.
→ When the RAID System is connected correctly but is not recognized, it may be faulty. Contact your
service representative or the dealer that you purchased this controller from.
Rebuilding cannot be performed:
Is the capacity of the hard disk drive to be used for the rebuild rebuilt insufficient?
→ Use a hard disk drive of the same capacity as the faulty one.
Is the Logical Drive configuration RAID0?
→ RAID0 does not have redundancy thus rebuilding cannot be performed. Replace the "DEAD" hard
disk drive, create the configuration information again, perform the initialization and then restore using
the backup data.
Auto-rebuild cannot be performed:
Did you wait at least 60 seconds during the drives hot-swap?
→ Wait at least 60 seconds between the removal of the failed disk and the insertion of the new one.
Is the BIOS setting for the RAID Controller correct?
→ Check the BIOS setting for the RAID Controller.
A hard disk drive goes into the "FAIL" status:
→ Contact your service representative or the dealer that you purchased it from.
The Consistency Check cannot be performed:
Is the virtual disk indicated as "Degraded"?
→ Replace the failed hard disk drive and execute a rebuild process.
Is the RAID level of the virtual disk "RAID0"?
→ The Consistency Check does not work on RAID0 because it has no redundancy.
