Note Cisco has also developed the Cisco Server Configuration Utility for C-Series servers, which can assist you in setting up some RAID configurations for your drives. This utility is shipped with new servers on CD. You can also download the ISO from Cisco.com. See the user documentation for this utility at the following URL: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/unified_computing/ucs/sw/ucsscu/user/guide/20/SCUUG20.html

Restoring RAID Configuration After Replacing a RAID Controller

When you replace a RAID controller, the RAID configuration that is stored in the controller is lost. Use the following procedure to restore your RAID configuration to your new RAID controller.

Step 1 Replace your RAID controller. See Replacing a PCIe Card, page 3-34.

Step 2 If this was a full chassis swap, replace all drives into the drive bays, in the same order that they were installed in the old chassis.

Step 3 If Quiet Boot is enabled, disable it in the system BIOS. See How to Disable Quiet Boot for CIMC Firmware Earlier Than Release 1.2(1), page C-5.

Step 4 Reboot the server and watch for the prompt to press F. Step 5 Press F when you see the following on-screen prompt:

Foreign configuration(s) found on adapter.

Press any key to continue or ‘C’ load the configuration utility, or ‘F’ to import foreign configuration(s) and continue.

Step 6 Press any key (other than C) to continue when you see the following on-screen prompt:

All of the disks			from your	previous configuration are gone.	If this is
an	unexpected	message, then please power of your system and			check your cables
to	ensure all	disks are present.
Press any key		to	continue,	or ‘C’ to load the configuration	utility.

Step 7 Watch the subsequent screens for confirmation that your RAID configuration was imported correctly.

•If you see the following message, your configuration was successfully imported. The LSI virtual drive is also listed among the storage devices.

N Virtual Drive(s) found on host adapter.

•If you see the following message, your configuration was not imported. This can happen if you do not press F quickly enough when prompted. In this case, reboot the server and try the import operation again wen you are prompted to press F.

0 Virtual Drive(s) found on host adapter.
