MSA60 and P411 in Proliant G7, error
Hi Experts,
I have recently returned to a company I contracted for a while back and it turns out that they 'threw away' their Proliant G5 server that was connected to an MSA60 array. Anyway, as they were buying new servers I advised them to get a P411 SAS card to reconnect their array as they will need some storage.
They did this and connected it this morning but got the following error:
1763-Array Accelerator daughtercard is detached; please reattach.
(Controller is disabled until this problem is resolved)
They have tried it in a few servers but with the same result. The server powers up fine without the DAS connected. Anyone see this error before?

Hmm, that's bad in a way, it should have picked up the old disks and kept the arrays intact. Must have been missing data from the cache module that belonged to the old arrays.

We found the issue and fixed it ourselves
Does the MSA60 have disks in RAID 6 as that requires battery and license.
Server should still boot assuming you've got the boot order correct since it shouldn't disable the disks on the other controller with the internal disks on it.
