ESXI ISSUE ON DELL SERVER

[Ijaz123]

I have installed ESXI 6.0 on DELL Server R720 with RAID 1.

Iam facing parity check in progress warning in vsphere client on storage.

after sometime one harddrive goes into foreign and led becomes orange from green.

Sounds like you have a physical server issue on your hands, not an ESXi or otherwise VMware-related issue.

but i have checked each and everything on server everything is going fine  Although i have changed server from dell r720 to r720xd and still the same problem persist.

[daphnissov]

What does the iDRAC say? Did you install ESXi with the Dell customized version?

[Ijaz123]

II have downloaded ESXI 6.O from vmware site.

[daphnissov]

If you have not installed this server with the correct ISO that is customized by DellEMC you need to reinstall your host. You should not use the default ESXi image on this vendor hardware. Start there and see what happens.

Ok i have download ESXI from dell sote now and will check the host with this ISO.

[Ijaz123]

And what i can do to clear previous all logs.

[daphnissov]

Clear from iDRAC.

[Ijaz123]

OK and is the iso will be fine which i have downloaded from dell site?

[Ijaz123]

Thanks for your kind support as i am trying this practice from one week and i was worried about this issue.

So this time i will go with ESXI downloaded from dell site.

[Ijaz123]

I have installed Dell customized esxi on server r720xd.

But still the same problem persist.(Parity check in progress)

I am using hdd 3.5 sata.

Then you've got an issue with your storage controller and/or disk. This isn't a VMware-related issue.
