This condition may occur when the Master Boot Record (MBR) of one of the 
drives has become corrupt or bad. Removing (erasing) the MBR will remedy 
any issue related directly to a bad MBR.

To erase the MBR, follow these steps:

1.

Backup any important data from the disk array.

2.

Note the disk array information, including which drives are used, the 
number of drives, RAID Level, etc.

3.

Delete the disk array.

4.

Create a new disk array using the specifications from the previous disk 
array.

5.

During the disk array creation process:
•

In FastBuild, set the Fast Init feature to ON

•

In WebPAM, select Fast or Full Initialization 

6.

Partition and format the disk array using your PC’s operating system. 
See “Appendix A: Partition and Format” on page 113.

See “The disk array constantly goes critical or offline during reboot,” above.

See “The disk array constantly goes critical or offline during reboot,” above.

This is due to Drive Geometry issues. You can verify this if you move the 
original drive back to the onboard controller and it boots successfully. Each 
controller can view a drive differently. This can be an issue for a new 

Before removing the MBR of the drive(s), backup any existing 
data. Removal of the MBR of any disk drive permanently deletes 
all existing data on the drive.
