>Description:
My server lost power and the RAID controller did not see the 2TB drive when the 
system came back up.  The tech at the datacenter told the controller to 
continue booting despite the drive being "missing" and then removed and 
re-inserted the drive at my request.  Now that the system has booted the RAID 
controller sees the drives as shown below.

SERENITY# mfiutil show drives
mfi0 Physical Drives:
(  419G) ONLINE            <SEAGATE ST3450802SS 0002 serial=3SR00N6E> SAS 
enclosure 1, slot 0
(  419G) ONLINE            <SEAGATE ST3450802SS 0002 serial=3SR00JN1> SAS 
enclosure 1, slot 1
(  419G) ONLINE            <SEAGATE ST3450802SS 0002 serial=3SR00DCQ> SAS 
enclosure 1, slot 2
( 1863G) UNCONFIGURED GOOD <WDC WD2002FYPS-0 1G01 serial=WD-WCAVY5131503> SATA 
enclosure 1, slot 3

If I try to reconfigure the drive as a JBOD or RAID0 I get the error
SERENITY# mfiutil create jbod E01:S03
mfiutil: Command failed: Wrong firmware or drive state
mfiutil: Failed to add volume: Input/output error
SERENITY# mfiutil create raid0 E01:S03
mfiutil: Command failed: Wrong firmware or drive state
mfiutil: Failed to add volume: Input/output error

Is there anyway to do this with mfiutil or will I have to go onsite (a 3 hour 
drive one way) and try to reconfigure the drive via the controller BIOS?

I also found this report from 9 months ago that had the same problem but I did 
not see a resolution

>How-To-Repeat:
Temporarily lose a drive on a controller that uses the mfi driver and after 
telling the RAID control to continue booting anyway try to re-create the 
array/jbod device with mfiutil.
