Hi,
I bought an intel H2312JFJR system which came with 12 SCSI drives (2TB) and four HNS2600JF Server Nodes.
When I first powered up the system, I noticed that non of the 12 hard disks is flashing any status light and when I get into the BIOS setup, no harddisk appeared in the boot order menu. This is the case for all the 4 nodes.
I tried to install a hypervisor (Xenserver) from the flash drive and it also confirmed that it could not find any drives. The only way I managed to get a node up and running is by using a flash drive with live Linux image.
I do not have any experience in Intel servers so I am not sure how to proceed.
What would cause all the 12 drives not working despite being a 4 node system with redundancy? and how should I proceed to further diagnose the problem ?
Regards,
Mishal
