Hi, For maintenance purposes, I shutdown my almost new Dell server and removed my 6 drives from the server. Afterward I placed them back in and restarted the server. The raid detected 4 drives out of 6. BTW, I am using Raid 5. Since this is a new server, I called Dell for support. They deleted and recreated the Virtual drive. It was not initialized. It sees the old partition but it is not loading it. Please help me get things back to the way they were.I have recent data not backed up. I would like to get everything back. regardsWaqar _______________________________________________ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc ILUGC Mailing List Guidelines: http://ilugc.in/mailinglist-guidelines
