Need help with this,

i was playing around with my Hp server with the above Raid Controller , had to virtual Drives set up as Raid 0, each drive has 4 drives.
the problem know its i disconnected 2 drives from the Raid Booted up the system, shutdown the system then put put the two missing drives back and know it does not boot
and on the Raid GUI WEB it gives me errors on the two drives.. can i get any help on this..

much thanks is appreciated
 
As you know if a drive fails in a raid0 then the array is lost and so is all your data. It was not a wise idea to present a broken array to the card.

The procedure you need to follow is pretty much the same as replacing a failed card.
With the drives disconnected, clear the configuration of the card. shutdown the server and attach the drives. startup again and import the config. How you do this varies on your particular setup and if you have the BBU or not and what kind of BBU (some store the config in their nvram)

Since you said this is also the boot array also (not a good idea in my opinion either), I've a feeling your about to become real familiar with the CLI
