Recover deleted virtual disk

Hell everyone,

Is there are any way to recover accidentally deleted virtual disks with data?
No foreign virtual disk config found

The main problem that no information saved how physical disks were splitted in virtual disks (12 physical disks in total were splited in 3 virtual disks)

Server:  PowerEdge R740xd2

Suslik317,

 

Without knowing exactly how the drives were configured previously we wouldn't have the ability without greatly endangering the data. If you did know how the drives were configured then we could look at doing a Retag, but without knowing we couldn't as it would corrupt the data.  Now if you have previously run a TSR (Technical Support Report), depending on the raid controller, then we could look to see if there was a controller log saved, which could give us the details of the configuration. Without that then I would consider taking the drives to a 3rd party data recovery, if the data is vital and there is no backup.

 

Let me know if this helps.

Hi,

 

The logs do not show any of the configuration of the virtual disk. As Chris mentioned, we will need the previous server logs (TSR report) before the deletion. If you do not have, we are unable to identify how are the drives configured.
