    replace hot swap drives

    You might have to pull the spare for the duration of the disk swaps otherwise when you pull a disk the spare will be put online. Apart from that, the instructions above will suffice although point 1 is not necessarily needed -------------------------------------- "Insert funny comment in...

    replace hot swap drives

    Try to swap the disks when the server is less busy... for example at the end of the day before the backup window starts. That way, when you pull the active disk from the server (thus failing it), you reduce the risk. -------------------------------------- "Insert funny comment in here!"...

    HP Proliant DL380 G5 running MS SQL 2005 EXPRESS

    This is not a fault with the HP server so really you should post this in the relevant SQL or Windows forum... However the usual default port for SQL is Port 1433 but I have personally noticed that SQL Express can configure itself for dynamic port allocating. I would check in SQL Manager and...

    Present a LUN to multiple ESX hosts

    Correct, as the OP of that thread I found my issue was related to the SAN configuration. The HBA configuration mapping was incorrect in my case so I had to modify the host group settings on the SAN configuration so that the ESX servers were in the same host group. When the SAN config is done...

    Code the location of the VBS file

    Guys Please can you tell me if there is a way of coding in the location of the VBS file without specifically specifying the directory name? I have written an app which relies on an INI file and also writes to a logfile which are both in the same location as the VBS file. I would like to write...

    How to keep a server cabinet cool

    The standard racks do not have sealed doors, they have a mesh type door to allow air circulation. Unless your rack had air circulation holes in the glass doors, there is not a lot you can do to help with server cooling as servers generally drag cold air in from the front and pump out hot hair...

    How can I lower fan speed on DL380 G2? (Under Linux)

    Firstly, I would start with making sure you are running the latest firmware levels as they can often resolve a lot of these sort of issues.
