Poweredge T110 how to enter raid configuration
Hi
I have a raid 1 configuration on the win 2008 R2 server. When I bootup, it says a disk is degraded. I tried to enter into the raid configuration using ctrl M, but nothing happens. There is only an option of ctrl C, which goes into the SAS something which I am not sure what it is.
How do I get into the raid configuration and check which disc is degraded?
Thank you in advance
Richard

CTRL-M is for PERC 2,3, and 4 controllers in older servers. CTRL-C is what you need. That is for the SAS 5/6 controllers, and CTRL-R is for the PERC 5+ controllers.

Hi
Many thanks for your help. I managed to replace the degraded disk with a 1TB disk (but it recognises only 500Gb as the primary disk is 500Gb.
Another question, am I able to replace the other disk with another 1TB disc and rebuild again? And will it show a 1TB drive at the end of it?
Thank you again
Richard

No, the SAS 5/6 controllers are low-end controllers that do not support expansion. You would need to backup/restore.
