HP Server Progblems, Can Progress or Vantage be causing this

James,

Have you replaced the power supply in the server? Is it sized
adequately for the drives and the backplane? Don't rely on the
OEM to size it adequately out of the factory.


have fun,
john

I have a lengtly problem that I wondered if Vantage or Progress could
be causing
To make a long story short
We have a HP LH3000 Net Server
I am running Vantage 5.118 and Progress
I have two 9 gb SCSI Hard Drives with a hardware mirror
I have had problems for two months with the first drive
It keeps failing
I have done EVERYTHING I Can think of!
HP Has replaced EVERYTHING IN the machine
Both Hard Drives
SCSI Back Plane
SCSI Cables
And the motherboard
Guess what
Still having problems with the drives failing
I have reformatted the drives and done a fresh install on Vantage and
progress TWICE

HP Has a 29 day turn around on getting me a new server
While I am waiting and "babying this thing"
I was asked by Micron (Thats who they got the server from)
COuld it be something your software is doing?
I am going to contact Epicor about this but I have been all the way
in the hardware configuration and it says that the drives will not
spin up or initilize or or or

Anyone else had anything similiar?

Thanks

Is the O.S. NT4.0 or 2K? If it's NT4.0 did you download the latest security
patch from Microsoft? If yes, then that's what happened to ours. In our case
all 4 drives failed.

I am running NT 4.0
And I stay away from M$ Pathces as much as possible on my servers
The Vanatage drives are independant of the OS Drive
So no I have not did a M$ Patch on it at all
