Hi folks! I've got a 9260-8i with
This morning, I powered on the machine, entered WebBIOS, disabled the alarm. I found that I lost two 3TB drives (slots 4 and 5) and the CacheCade SSD (slot 6). All three of those drives were on an Ebay 3-way SATA power splitter special, which apparently decided to juuuust slightly unseat and lose its connection integrity overnight.
After fixing the power cabling and marking those three drives as Unconfigured(Good), this is what I have:
(The CacheCade array doesn't show in the logical view, perhaps because it has zero good drives now.)
So now I've got all seven drives back. But, I'm unable to figure out how to restore my configuration. I've got data in the controller cache and in the CacheCade drive. I don't see an import option offered anywhere. I was going to try clearing the configuration to look for it then, but I get a scary message that the controller cache will be discarded. All the data is sitting there - what's the right way to restore the configuration in this scenario?
I miss my 3ware where I plug it all back in and it works.
