Scenario 4: Recovering a corrupt internal drive

The following steps describe the recommended approach for recovering the system root drive on a Recovery-720 or Recovery-730.

1        To determine which internal drive failed, view the alerts on the status window of the Administrator interface. You may also view the contents of /proc/mdstat.

2        If the drive is offline, bring the drive online and run the script

/usr/bp/bin/rebuild_disk

3        If the drive is corrupt, insert a new disk drive. The new disk drive must be the same size as the original disk drive.

Once the new disk drive has been inserted, the rebuild process should begin automatically. If it does not, use the /usr/bp/bin/rebuild_disk script to format the new drive.
