Server 2012 R2 PERC error / drives missing, boot problems
Server shutdown with the following error: "Foreign config found on adapter" Drive 1 was blinking green / amber. "PERC adapter: Virtual disks, ID: 0, virtual disk 0"
RAID5 four drives total.
2 drives originally showed missing.![missing drives]()
After reboot first and second drive showed online and foreign![foreign dr and online]()
Server prior to first and second drive showing up would not boot, as it sits now only drive we're waiting on is the first drive, says it's rebuilding. I thought the server would boot with three drives however now we're stuck on this screen![choose an option]()
