hi,
Good day today; got all VMs out of the 3 raid volumes which were
connected to now broken ml350 g5 - all 6 disks were fine all the time, some other
component failed with ml350 g5.
My learnings from today
- after looking around I found HP ML110 G3 lying around so I took the Boot Disk out of the ml350 g5 ( only one half of the Raid 1 volume)
and
connected that to ML110 G3
and
realized that it booted esx 5.1 without any errors
after which I
Connected remaining disks one at a time to ml110 g3
and
with this way relocated all the VMs
Now pushing those VMs to no-name Esxi 5.1 server to get the Internal dns, win domain controller etc
back to service..before midnight
