Hi!
I have just experienced what i presume is a hardware malfunctioning on my Sas9341-8i raid card.
While server was running, the raid suddenly got alot of I/O errors from a program running, that was writing to the raid, and then the raid disappeared in windows.
After reboot, i now get I/O error in device manager in Windows Server 2012 R2.
And after POST, it tells me:L2/L3 Cache error was detected on the RAID controller.
"Please contact technical support to resolve this issue. Press 'X' to continue or else power off the system, replace the controller and reboot.
From that message i presume that the card has to be replaced to get my raid up and running again.
Is there any way to get this card running again?
If not, then i have a few questions:
Could a FW upgrade possible solve this problem ? Since it seems that everything els is fine (it detects all disks in the MegaRaid Config etc)
Will I be able to simply just replace the card, with no loose of data etc?
Does it need to be the exact same model / FW version etc, for me to get the raid up again, incase i replace the raid.?
Any other way you can help me, or advise on this situation?
Thank you for your time and help.
Best regards
Apil
