OS=Windows server 2003 R2 SP2
Hardware=DNF hardware, flexstor OS and Enterprise 16320Z (affected-infected?) and two other Enterprose raid 5 arrays 16322Z.
I had to rebuild the raid array after replacing a suspect hard drive.
I completed the rebuild before using the partition recovery.
I tried the Partition recovery and completed step6 (it took two days).
I do not get a volume (NTFS-or otherwise) to select so I am unable to proceed.
Initial errors on this partition were random files corrupted and the $Mft corrupted messages. Prompted to run chkdsk. I ran chkdsk with only the affected raid 5 array disconnected while the 2 other raid arrays were active.
This of course did nothing but I had to buy my users some time with the other data.
I ran scheduled chkdsk and rebooted server when I could.
When it came up the volume that had the errors initiallywas no longer visable.
That is, the data was no longer visable to the OS.
If I tried to open it I got the message stating that the drive is not formatted, would I like to format? uh, NO!
I called the DNF technicians and they recommended your software.
If I change the view to partition table, I get some information on the first listing for partition table, it just doesn't mean anything to me.
There are 3 other listings that have no data.
I am really hoping that my user do not have to recover all of this data from LTO tape if at all possible.
PLEASE HELP!
thanks,
