Hello Pumrat,

Once you do a syswipe on an MD3xxx system you are not able to recover the array configuration.   When a syswipe is issued it writes 1 & 0 over every MB of space & destroying all previous configurations. The only way to try to recover the array is to take the drives to a software recovery company & they may be able to recover the array

Please let us know if you have any other questions.

hello,

two years ago a repaired Promise array with damaged DDF stuctures, so I hope it will be the same.

I have another question... is "set diskGroup [diskGroupNumber] addPhysicalDisks=(trayID1,slotID1

... trayIDn,slotIDn) raidLevel= ...." from SMCli un-destructive for data?

thanks

I.
