Re: Entire RAID set non-reporting

[Larry Bolhuis <lbolhuis@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Kirk makes a good suggestion.  I would ask: In DST can you SEE the
drives as being attached to the 6502? As I recall the drives Should
appear there.  As Kirk says if 2 or more fail then the set is toast and
a reload is in your future. I would think the ones still functioning
should still appear, even if they don't spin up.  The two working drives
under the MFIOP should appear as well.  Optionally if they Don't appear
try F10 to display Non-Reporting resources and see if all 8 show up
there.
