Perc6i and Netware 6.5
I have a problem with a installation of Netware 6.5 on a new PE 1950 with perc6i.
I use the new perc6i NLM.
The OS is ok, but if a restart the server, then after dismouting volumes de screen is black and de led's on the harddisk are green and not blinking. After that the server is not responding.
I think it is the new perc6i driver!?
someone else with the same problem?

Acording to DellSupport i had to downgrade the BIOS (2.0.1) to version 1.51.This solved the problem.Graaf Hermanula_____\/^^^^^^^^^^\/Pascal-Zadkine

Downgrade is only posible if jou had a server type I or II (1950 or 2950).Not the new types III.If jou do this with the new type, jou must replace the motherboard. :-)
Message Edited by Pascal-Zadkine on 01-23-2008 01:55 AMSorry to bump an old thread, but I have this problem with all of our new 2950 III servers. If we cannot downgrade the bios without causing a problem (such as having to replace the motherboard) how can we resolve this issue? It is unacceptable to not be able to restart the server. This will have me driving all over town to restart servers instead of being able to handle it remotely.
Thanks
