Question ID: 43986
How do I rebuild a 2450 Raid Array. 
I have two Drives in a RAID 1 configuration
on my Dell Poweredge 2450.  One of the Drives 
Was pulled and is now listed as a "Missing Member".
I'd like the Raid Array to rebuild the Mirror.  How 
do I get a Poweredge 2450 to do that?

Do you have ArrayManager or the PERC utility installed?

Go to the array manager console
Go to the controller view
From the menu, pause i/o (be Careful here)
Reseed the drive.
From the menu, click on rescan.
Then it should to automaticall detect the new drive. 
Select the drive, Right Click on the new detected drive and add to the
existing array.
then select the entire vitual array and select to recreate the raid
array.

Are these Firmware Utilties? (The ArrayManager and PERC utility)
The server itself is running Linux Redhat 7.3.
