How to change a blade of chassis in safe mode

[sperezoplk]

Hi there guys!

I'm triying to change a blade of chassis, but everytime that we make the change the OS into the blade its deleted; this is hapenning with all the blades that are trying to move. We don't have any Scrub policy applied.

Anyone has idea of what is happening?

I assume this is a local boot on the blade?

What is the local disk policy set to?

Is the local disk policy set to "protected" mode?

How are you changing the blade, decom first and then swap or just swap?

Hi robert,

1 and 2 :The local disk polic is raid1 and the protect configuration setting is active.

3: Just swaping the blades into another chassis

Before removing a blade always run a decommision, even if you are going to use the same service profile:

Server - General - Server Maintenance.

When you insert it in another slot, it will run a re-acknowldge. If you are going to apply the same service profile with the local disk configuration that you mention, the data should stay there.

If the Protect Configuration box is checked, the server retains the configuration  in the local disk configuration policy even if the server is  disassociated from the service profile.

When a service profile is disassociated from a server and a new  service profile associated, the setting for the Protect Configuration  property  in the new service profile takes precedence and overwrites the  setting in the previous service profile.

Note	If you disassociate the server from a service  profile with this option enabled and then associate it with a new  service profile that includes a local disk configuration policy with  different properties, the server returns a configuration mismatch error  and the association fails.
