Hi guys,

One of the harddrive in  server(HP Proliant ML 350 Gen 9- server 2012 R2)has failed.

Server is configured with RAID6 setup with 5 hardrives. I got a replacement harddrive from HP with similar size.

I just want to know how to replace it and rebuild it??
Can I just switch off the server and replace the harddisk and switch on server back again? Or can i swap the harddisk as its running live without turning off as raid 6 - 2 harddisk can fail.
or do I need to do anything else in particular ?

As this is the first time I am swapping a harddisk, any help would be great.

Hi experts
Shared folders on keep asking for password even with administrator pass
However i can connect remotely to the same server with the same Authentication

I have new Windows Server 2012 R2 that I had set some permissions on some folders on the D drive. I backed up files from a Windows Server 2003 SP2 and restored to the D drive on this 2012 Server using Veritas Backup 2012. Now my drive is not accessible, access is denied. I can map shares and get access to them but still have not managed to get the D drive to be accessible. I am logging on as a domain admin. Any idea of what I'm missing? Thanks.

If I use Set_VMHostFirmware to restore the previous backup configuration of VMware server, will it re-install everything, including the  virtual switch ?

Thx

How do MongoDB and Active Directory go together?

I have a small bit of exposure to MongoDB and  Active Directory as well. But is there so synergy of using them together?

Curious..

Thanks

Need advice on moving a VMWare vdmk drive from one Windows server to a replacement server.

We are running VMWare.  I have a file server that is an old Windows 2003 box.  I am replacing it with a new server which will have the same name and ip address, but will be Server 2016.  The data drive, which appears as the second drive, is approximately 1 Tb.  I am hoping that I can remove the vdmk from the original, power the server down, add it to the new server, and rename and ip the new box.  Is it this simple, or am I missing something?  Will the permissions transfer (it's on a domain)?  I think I'll just have to change the share permissions.  

Thanks!

I have a Windows Server 2008 R2 system.
