After 10.4.11 upgrade on X Serve, fiber channels down on raid Utility.

After 10.4.11 upgrade on X Serve, fiber channels down on raid Utility.

How do make fiber channels green again on Raid Utility. So I can remount X Raid.

I have 2 Gb Fiber cards and I guess I will need drivers for it, But can't seem to find it anywhere

I believe I have LSI7202XP after I check this page http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1769

Thank you for your time

The steps that you should follow;

1-Turn off X Serve

2- Turn off X Raid

3- Pull out all Raid drives from X Raid

4-Turn on X Raid without the Drives

5- Wait X Raid to be completely ON.

6- Turn on X serve

7-See fiber channels link up on Raid Utility ( you should have ethernet connection to X Raid as well for administrative purpose)

8- Plug in only one side of the Raid Drives first and see if it mounted.

9- Plug in second side of the Raid Drives

I hope it helps
