IBM X3650 server raid help

[noorkoteb]

I have a ibm x3650 and 2 disks. I don't even know what a raid was, and i set it up following some tutorials. the server worked great for monthes then i wanted to re-download the OS, so i took one disk out, so i don't accedently format the wrong disk (stupid me) :\ but when i did that the drives didn't work anymore. I searched it up someone said something about breaking a raid D: How do i fix it or even disable it iv'e already reset both drives still couldn't re create the raid or use them alone i don't know much about how this system really works please help me fix this? btw this is a 2008 server its not a x3650 m3 m4 its just x3650

Assuming you don't need data that's on the disks you should be looking for a clear foreign configuration option in the RAID controller setup.

This will likely help assuming you have the ServeRAID controller:

ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/systems/...ibm_doc_sraidmr_10.03_software-user-guide.pdf

Page 4-88.

If you have not already destroyed the data on the RAID set you may be able to import the foreign configuration and get back to a workable state.

In your other thread, you mentioned that the RAID is now working. Is that correct?
