If you can find out I would like to know. This is something that EMC hold's close to their hart. Unless your a partner I't ain't gonna happen.

Do you have a set of working disks right now?

The easy way to do it is to fire up a working system and then pull one system disk.
Then put your fresh disk in that spot and wait for the rebuild to complete.
When complete, do this with disk next disk in line.

Be sure to label the position of each disk.
e.g. disk 0, disk 1, disk2, etc.

When you are done, you will have a working "clone set".

I hope this helps.

As "Dmandell" had mentioned the only way to recover a flare software file is to once the system is fired up CX200-CX700 you replace disk 4 with a new disk S/B same rpm and after 15 or so min. replace disk 3 and so on through disk 0 this is the only way. Unless as mentioned in earlier blogs you are a EMC partner.
