I had to change the CPU fan on one of my servers (NT 4 w. SR6A)
No of disk are 4. Disk 0 is boot (system). Disk 1-3 (3 x 13 GB) is parity with stripe.
I “downed” the server to change the CPU fan. Start the server and the cmos battery was out of order.
Change to a new battery.
The server started and after loging in the server stop with “blue screen of dead”.
Move the disk to a new computer. Restart and again “blue screen of dead”.
New installtion on a new HD.
From the old system disk, copy information to the new server.
So now I have mail, proxy and so on… runing.
But the strip set, I can’t access it.
NT Server Resource Kit says in chapter 5 “Recovering a stripe set with parity”
Use the FtEdit program to build the registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\DISKOK after reboot – the volym is RECOVERABLE but it’s UNKOWN.
I can’t access the disk’s.
Help…. It’s 5 years of work on the disk’s.
