EHCM service startup problem: file not fiund

on two clustered 2008 R2 boxes the ehcm service installed with hit-kit wont start due to file

dropped my half of my posting..

problem ist the windows MPIO feature, which needs to be installed prior to hitkit. The 4.0 installer

ignores the missing feature, 3.5 requests the installation. had to uninstall hitkit, install mpio and hitkit

again and reboot to get it running...

Not much information to go on here, please provide the following:

- firmware of the Array Group

- version of HIT installed

- exact error message

Do you recall if you installed the hit from the console or via terminal server (remote desktop)?

Sounds like the install did not complete properly.  I will need you uninstall and reinstall, and ensure you have “install mode” enable first (specific to RDP remote installs).

Steps

1. RDP into the host, (login as a user with administrator rights).

2. Select the command prompt icon, and right click “run as administrator”

3. Once the command screen is open, type:

change user /install

(this will enable user install mode)

4. Unistall/remove the HIT kit

5. Once removed, install the HIT kit (if you restart the Host before the install, you may need to re-enable install mode again, just repeat steps 1, 2 and 3)

6. To disable install mode at the elevated command prompt (i.e., run as administrator) type:

change user /execute

The reason for install mode is that by default Terminal Server is in Execution mode, and some drivers will not load correctly (no warning is displayed either).
