Dell Poweredge R720 not booting after restart

Dell Power Edge R720 showing the message after a restart.

"CONSECUTIVE POWER LOSS DETECTED DURIING IOs on non-optimal write-back volumes. This MAY HAVE RESULTED TO DATA INTEGRITY ISSUES. PRESS 'X' TO PROCEED."

While pressing x it won't proceed.

Similarly, while pressing F2, F10, F11, F12 won't work.

Can anyone tell me what might be the issue?

Thanks in advance

Try a flea power drain first, check results and let me know : 

(shut down, disconnect power cables and Network cables, hold in power button 20 seconds with cords removed).

After flea power drain, system has to set for 3 minutes for DRAC to reset without any power plugged in, then plug in NIC and power but wait 2 minutes before power on to give DRAC time to initialize

are you able to enter into raid BIOS from post screen or by pressing C while prompted, a SS can provide a better picture of the issue

Here is the detailed action plan for you:- 1. Power off the system remove power cable .

2. Press and hold power button for 10sec.

3. Fix the power cable back press the power button.

4. When prompted enter into the raid BIOS, select the controller and enter the Forign tab.

5. Import the forign configuration save the configuration.

6. exit and reboot.

 

check the POST for any error if issue is same let me know.

your two disks are showing missing at Slot :04 and 05 have you performed any changes?

Enter into foreign view and check if the disks are there.

check below:- 

1. any HDD replaced in array.

2. Any drive at missing slots are being reseat earlier.

 

share the SS of foreign view iam online here for you.
