Users Guide

You may recreate the exact same configuration without an initialize operation which may result in the data being recovered. You must
have server control privilege.
NOTE: Resetting the controller configuration does not remove a foreign configuration. To remove a foreign
configuration, perform clear configuration operation.
Resetting Controller Configuration Using Web Interface
To reset the controller configuration:
1. In the iDRAC Web interface, go to Overview > Storage > Controllers > Troubleshooting.
The Controllers Troubleshooting page is displayed.
2. From the Actions drop-down menu, select Reset Configuration for one or more controllers.
3. For each controller, from the Apply Operation Mode drop-down menu, select when you want to apply the settings.
4. Click Apply.
Based on the selected operation mode, the settings are applied.
Resetting Controller Configuration Using RACADM
To reset the controller configuration, use the following command:
racadm storage resetconfig:<Controller FQDD>
For more information, see the iDRAC RACADM Command Line Reference Guide available at dell.com/esmmanuals.
12Gbps SAS HBA Adapter Operations
The non-RAID controllers are the HBAs that do not have few RAID capabilities. They do not support virtual disks.
iDRAC interface supports only 12 Gbps SAS HBA controller in this release.
You can perform the following for non-RAID controllers:
• View controller, physical disks, and enclosure properties as applicable for the non-RAID controller. Also, view EMM, fan , power supply
unit, and temperature probe properties associated with the enclosure. The properties are displayed based on the type of controller.
• View software and hardware inventory information.
• Update firmware for enclosures behind the 12 GBps SAS HBA controller (staged)
• Monitor the polling or polling frequency for physical disk SMART trip status when there is change detected
• Monitor the physical disks hot plug or hot removal status
• Blink or unblink LEDs
NOTE:
• You must perform Collect System Inventory On Reboot (CSIOR) operation before inventorying or monitoring the
non-RAID controllers.
• Reboot the system after performing a firmware update.
• Real-time monitoring for SMART enabled drives and SES enclosure sensors is only done for the 12 GBps SAS HBA
controllers.
