Installation Issues

The following section discusses various installation issues.

RAID 5 Configuration Defaults To RAID 1 After A Hard Drive

Replacement

Description After replacing the hard drives, the system's RAID 5 configuration defaults to the RAID 1. This issue

occurs because the operating system reinstallation media cannot find an operating system partition

of 120 GB or larger on Virtual Disk 0.

Workaround/

Solution

To workaround this issue, perform the following steps:

NOTE: The operating system can only be installed on LUN 0 of the internal controller. To configure

a RAID configuration other than RAID 1, create a virtual disk with LUN ID 0 before reinstalling the

operating system.

1. If applicable, backup data on all virtual disks.

2. Reboot your system and enter the Dell PowerEdge RAID controller (PERC) BIOS.

For more information, see the PERC documentation at support.dell.com/manuals.

3. Create a virtual disk with the desired RAID configuration, LUN ID 0, and a capacity of 120 GB or

more.

4. Reboot the Dell PowerVault Network Attached Storage (NAS) using the operating system

reinstallation media.

RAID Configuration Does Not Match Factory Configuration After

Reinstalling The Operating System

Description After reinstalling the operating system, the RAID configuration on the system does not match the

factory configuration and defaults to RAID 1. This issue occurs because the operating system

reinstallation media cannot find an operating system partition of 120 GB or larger on Virtual Disk 0.
