I have a HP DL580 G2 with local and additional array storage. (local storage is on a SmartArray 5iController and the additional storage is on a SmartArray 64xx)
Created a KickScript for the build and everything works fine apart from I keep getting the prompt to Ignore additional storage during the installation.
A nice to have would be to supress this message, I have tried adding the "ignoredisk --drives=c1d0" also tried the variant of: "ignoredisk --drives=cciss/c1d0" without any luck.
Does anyone know what I need to input to supress this message?
Unless your second controller uses a different driver you need to detach the additional storage. If you don't detach the storage you could accidently overwrite storage on the second controller if the first controller where to fail in a manner that keeps it from being detected.
If the second controller uses a different driver it is possible to remove the driver for the second controller from the installer so it can't see that device or anything connected to it.
Thanks for your replies, our external storage is on 64xx array controller. sda, sdb etc is for SAN or non-internal HP array controllers.
In regard to disconnecting the array, could do that but I want the option to ignoredisk in the script -- I agree when you have a full SAN hosted infrastrcuture you would disconnect but we have a few stand alones.
Anybody else out there no of a way to supress the ignore disks message displaying during installation?
