Compaq 3200 manual Installing the Operating System Drivers

6-14Installing the Operating System Drivers

4.It may be possible to use the INSTALL.NLM option Change Hot Fix to determine the number of Hot Fix Redirection blocks set up for this partition. Otherwise, refer to the section “Using CPQDAOPT on NetWare Servers,” in Chapter 5 for more information about optimizing the performance.

NOTE: Even though the logical drive may have a valid partition table, the data on this logical drive is no longer valid. Some data may appear valid because the failed physical drive is only a portion of the arrayed logical drive. However, there is a hole in the logical drive data at this point. Delete any old, invalid data and create a new partition on the logical drive.

5.Return to the INSTALL.NLM Disk Options menu. Select the Partition Tables Option. The driver should reactivate the failed logical drive. The driver sends a console alert if reactivation of the failed logical drive is successful. In the INSTALL.NLM Available Disk Drives menu, select the previously failed logical drive that has now been repaired. The device information was recorded in Step 1. For example:

NWPA: [V503-A2-D1:0] Compaq SMART-2 Slot 8 Disk 2 NFT

Select the Delete Partition option. INSTALL may display several error messages. Delete the volume associated with this partition. Since you will delete this partition, do not update any Volume Definition Table information. Continue until the partition has been deleted.

If INSTALL reports that it cannot delete the partition because another process has it locked, load MONITOR and look at the System Resources option to determine which NLM has locked the device. If it is MONITOR.NLM, you will need to unload MONITOR and any other NLMs that have the partition locked. After you create the partition and volume information, reload these NLMs.

6.Create the partition on the same logical drive.

7.Create and mount the volume.

8.Locate the recent back-up media and restore the data to this server volume.
