Raid Managment

Hello,

I got some trouble about the Raid management on one of my two open-e (the second has a 3ware interface)

Model: Data Storage Server
Version: 5.0up60.7101.3511 32bit
Release date: 2009-03-09
RAID/SCSI controllers
LSI Logic / Symbios Logic MegaRAID SAS 8708ELP
LSI Logic / Symbios Logic SAS1068E PCI-Express Fusion-MPT SAS (rev 04)


When I go to the H/W Raid menu, I get “Please install remote management tool (RAID WEB Console 2) at your local PC.”. I have define a password for the user : raid (full access)
This software is an update from MegaRaid Storage Manager (LSI)

So I try both versions, but I get the same error “Login failed : Exception while login!”

Anyone get an idea about this ?

Thanks a lot

Sure, I've been struggling with this on XenServer 5.0 and 5.5. Currently I have no success logging into the XenServer 5.5 setup, but I remember modifying the PAM modules on 5.0 resulting in a working solution. Unfortunately, I've forgotten what I did... :)

But I assume PAM is the best place to start to troubleshoot the issue. If you should be able to figure out how to mod the pam setup, please let us know. :)

I am having this problem too! My DSS server uses an LSI 9260-4i. I have tried 2 different Windows clients and both give the same error “Login failed : Exception while login!” when I try to login with username raid , password raid. I have disabled the firewall on the clients and everything.

Currently this is keeping me from being able to do RAID 10 online expansion, since without storage manager I would have to do the expansion from the WebBIOS (i.e. not online)

Any ideas?
:confused:

Thanks,
Dave

What version are you running in the latest DSS V6 you can manage the controller from the GUI if using the Web Console tools from a PC try connecting with the last NIC port of the DSS server, this is a known issue with the controller and vendor.

Nach dem Update auf 6.0up50.xxxx.4786 2010-09-29 b4786 wird mein Areca Controller
nicht mehr im H/W Raid Menü angezeigt.

Mit der vorigen Version 6.0up45.xxxx.4622 2010-07-26 b4622 funktionierte das noch.

Was wurde geändert, wo ist der Fehler?

Fragend,

Try to restart the DSS V6 server, are you able to see your volumes?
