HP ML350 G5 RAID failure

Written by pancyber on 2019-02-05. Posted in Blog.

It is not unusual for an old HP Smart Array E200i RAID controller to “forget” it’s configuration and convert an array from level-5 to level-1 with disastrous results. Thankfully, our emergency team was able to restore a valid backup and replace the faulty disks. The server was again up and running with minimal down-time.

I don’t need to mention that a server replacement is needed immediately!

If you have never seen such a screen in your tech life you are lucky! Especially if you never had to wait a few hours until the whole system crashes trying to read an damaged hard disk sector.

Luckily this time everything went smooth for our emergency team. All files were copied successfully and moved to the new server.
