Dell PERC H730P mini RAID card broken coursed ZFS boot fail
FreeBSD 11.1, Dell PowerEdge R730, PERC H730P mini RAID card( 8 disks , RAID 6)
2 virtual volume, one for zroot boot , one for user home data (all are zfs file system)
One day PowerEdge R730 server failed and auto reboot, hung in a screen (bios version 2.7.1)
Send the Dell Lifecycle hardware log to Dell Supporter , they told me try to update the raid card firmware.
Enter Dell Lifecycle controller, found RAID firmware is 25.5.3.0005,A11, try to update to 25.5.5.0005 A13 , updating progress ok, but when Lifecycle controller reboot back , found the firmware version not changed, try another time, the same. It seems firmware can't update.
Dell send a new card (firmware 25.5.5)and replace the old one, the new card boot FreeBSD normally , uptime for about 2 hours, and then display the screen
Ctrl + Alt + Del reboot the system , Server hung in the first images screen again
Call DELL again , they send the second raid card, replaced ... boot the server
but now FreeBSD display screen
--------------
>>FreeBSD EFI boot block
Loader path:/boot/loader.efi
Initializing modules:ZFS UFS
Probing 7 block devices.......*. done
ZFS found the foloowing pools:zroot
UFS found no partitions
ZFS: i/o error - all block copies unavailable
ZFS: can't read MOS of pool zroot
Failed to load '/boot/loader.efi'
panic: No bootable partitions found!
All 8 disks lights blink normal.
So how to do first? any reference documents should I read?
If I reinstall FreeBSD system in the first volume , can I restore the second volume's files ( user home data)?
the two volumes are zfs system.
