How to reset server status after replacing harddisk?
I have several machines which are monitored by OME 2.5.0.1005. They all show status warning in OME after I replaced a Harddisk which had a predictive failure alert.
One machine, I even replaced all Harddisks (delete the array, changed all drives, created new array).
If I go to the individual machines Server Admin WebUI everything is shown as fine: green on Server status, and green on the disk subsystem status.
How can I fix this problem? It is getting annoying to see theses warnings.

It doesnt matter much if the systems are patched to current versions, things might even go worse if (think of the impossibility to lauch the dell server management with the built in IE after updating).
But yes, at least some of these systems have current softwre.
Meanwhile I found out, that the following things might help:
shutdown system: cleared a warning of the backplane which persisted after hotplugging the replacement drive) and remove power cable. Then start again
reset idrac to factory settings: cleared a wrong failure expected status of a new SSD drive.

Valued.Customer,
Would you confirm if the servers are up to date on BIOS, iDrac, etc. Also verify if the servers were discovered using OpenManage, or the iDrac. Lastly, is there any change if you run a consistency check on the controller?
Let me know what you see.
