Hi,
If two drives have failed out of a RAID 5 array, unfortunately i'm pretty sure that means that the array has degraded beyond its redundancy level.
Advanced data recovery may be able to help with getting your data back, but I wouldn't pin your hopes on it. Once two discs fail, the array becomes degraded, and the data is irrecoverable.
Did you manage to make a backup before the drive(s) died?

If you're getting this error message very frequently then change the hard drive connector to any different available SCSI port on the motherboard. This issue is generally caused due to a problem in the SCSI port on the mobo.


To stop the Beep alert, click Start button, Control Panel, Sound devices.

In the sound properties window, click on the Sound tab, then select and highlight the "Default Beep" under the Program Events section then select "NONE" from the drop down under the Sounds section then click Apply and OK.

Then, restart the Computer for the changes to take effect.

Namrata_stha, The I912 error is referring to the System Event Log is full of events and because of this is unable to log anymore. You must clear the log in order for the Server Management controller to log any more events. Now depending on the OS installed there are different ways to clear it. If Windows Server 2k8 you would use this command - wevtutil el ' foreach { wevtutil cl $_ } Where with Server 2003 you can go tot he Event viewer and clear it. Let me know if this helps.

Please be more specific. You haven't actually asked a question. What are you trying to do? What happens that you aren't expecting?

You will have to get into the controlled setup in order to find out what the problem is, or you can simply hit ctrl-D and do the Dell disk diagnostics which will take an hour or more, but will give you an idea of where to start. Logically, if it won't boot, then your RAID is probably broken. it can sometimes be repaired through either the RAID or controller setup menu, which you can see during boot. go here, for the manuals and documentation on how to do that: http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/19/product-support/product/poweredge-t105/manuals

what is your server model? in most cases you can use the operating disc to format the server drives

Go to start menu. click on 'control panel'. Select 'system and security". Then select 'system'. This should give you the info.

Best is to find a support or systems engineer on http://www.qual.ch if you are in Switzerland and for the UK you can find find a top Dell expert or systems specialist on http://qualifind.co.uk -- I just asked one (from Qualifind) and was informed you just need to install Openmanage and clear the logs from there, no need to down the server.
