Server2003: Replace SCSI Controller Question

[Guest SteveJHU]

Hi,

We have a 2003 Enterprise R2 SP2 installation. We had a controller fail and

needed to replace it. The failed controller was an HP SmartArray 5300. We

tried to replace it with a SmartArray 6400. After we installed the new

controller, we received a Stop Error 0x0000007B. We could not boot to safe

mode. What is the procedure to change the boot controller to a different

controller in Server 2003? I was not able to find documentation on this.

Thanks,

Steve

Hello SteveJHU,

 

Think you have to contact HP support for this. Also i think you have to replace

an array controller with the same model to get access to the created arrays

before the crash.
