Cant Mount SYS or VOL1

[AgTech]

Anyone have any sugggestions?.. We are unable to mount SYS or VOL1 after rebooting. We restarted because disks were not mirrored and ended up in an orphaned state.

Ok, what errors are you getting? What hardware are you on and are the SCSI drivers loing ok?

Give all the info and we'll try and give you an answer! -----------------------------------------------------

Yes, we need more info!!!

But in the meantime...

1. Make sure that your SCSI (...or IDE) Controller drivers are loading successfully.
2. Run VREPAIR against both Volumes
3. Try loading the Server in LOADSTAGES and see what, if any, errors are occurring.

Good Luck!

Thanks for the advice. We were able to get the volumes mounted and mirrored but most of the data was lost. We are not sure why. We are trying trim the use of the box so we are moving GroupWise to another box. We tried to install it to a Win2k box (the POA only)..it has trouble talking to the MTA that resides on a Netware box. We may have to go to a Netware box. Does anyone know if we can split Groupwise across Netware & Win2k?..We eventually want to go all Win2k.
