Virtual Drives Are Displayed Twice

Bug 15758202

Issue: When the system BIOS is in UEFI booting mode and two NEMs are installed in the system chassis, some virtual drives that you configure on the HBA might be displayed twice in the BIOS Setup utility.

Workaround: You can prevent this from occurring by performing one of the following procedures.

Procedure 1:

  1. Remove one of the NEMs installed in the system chassis.

    The physical drives will now be listed once in the BIOS Setup utility.

  2. Access the BIOS Setup utility by pressing F2, when prompted, during system bootup.

  3. Create the virtual drive.

  4. Replace the NEM in the system chassis.

Procedure 2:

  1. Access the BIOS Setup utility by pressing F2, when prompted, during system bootup.

  2. Through the Boot menu of the BIOS Setup utility, change the system BIOS booting mode so that that the system boots in Legacy mode.

  3. Use the BIOS Configuration utility (that you access by typing Ctrl+C, when prompted, during bootup) to create the virtual drive.

  4. After the drive is created, revert back to UEFI booting mode through the Boot menu of the BIOS Setup utility.
