Reactivate RAID Volumes

Language:

Perform this task only if your server had RAID volumes prior to replacing the motherboard.

Prior to powering on the server, log in to the SPM.
Refer to Servers Administration for instructions.

At the Oracle ILOM prompt, disable auto-boot so that the server will not boot the OS when the server powers on.
```
-> set /HOST/bootmode script="setenv auto-boot? false"
```

Power on the server.
See Power On the Server (Oracle ILOM) or Power On the Server (System Power Button).

At the OpenBoot prompt, list the device paths on the server.

ok show-devs
...
/pci@301/pci@1/scsi@0
/pci@303/pci@1/scsi@0
...

You can also use the devalias command to locate device paths specific to your server.

ok devalias
...
SAS0                    /pci@301/pci@1/scsi@0
SAS1                   /pci@303/pci@1/scsi@0
...

Choose the RAID module on the motherboard.
```
ok select scsi
```
Instead of using the alias name scsi, you could type the full device path name (such as /pci@400/pci@2/pci@0/pci@e/scsi@0).

List all connected logical RAID volumes to determine which volumes are in an inactive state.

ok show-volumes

For example, the following output shows an inactive volume:

ok show-volumes
Volume 0 Target 389  Type RAID1 (Mirroring)
  WWID 03b2999bca4dc677
  Optimal  Enabled  Inactive
  2 Members                    583983104 Blocks, 298 GB
.
Disk 1
   Member 0  Optimal
   Target a      HGST     H101860SFSUN600G A770   PhyNum 1
 Disk 0
   Member 1  Optimal
   Target b      HGST     H101860SFSUN600G A770   PhyNum 2

For each RAID volume listed as inactive, type the following command to activate that volume.
```
ok inactive_volume activate-volume
```
where inactive_volume is the name of the RAID volume that you are activating. For example:
```
ok 0 activate-volume
Volume 0 is now activated
```
Note - For more information on configuring hardware RAID on the server, refer to Servers Administration.

Unselect the SCSI device.
```
ok unselect-dev
```

Confirm that you reactivated the volume.

Set the auto-boot? OpenBoot PROM variable to true so the server boots the OS when powered on.
```
ok setenv auto-boot? true
```

Reboot the server.
See Server Administration.
