I have a new build, and I am having a hell of a time getting it up and running.
Here are the specs.
Supermicro X8ST3-F
Xeon E5620 @ 2.4 GHz (quad core)
Intel 82574L (dual gigabit nic)
24GB RAM
2 intel 120GB SSD drives
16 Seagate 600GB Cheetah 15K.7 SAS drives for our storage.
LSI 9750-16i4e SAS Raid Controller
It also has, and I don't have the model, a dual 10gig ethernet card.
I understand about installing it to a flash drive, and I've heard the talk about raid as well. I would install it to one SSD, and then basically we are going to have the second as a backup (non raid) in case the first fails.
Here is what my issue is. When I install it to the SSD, it gets to bringing the ethernet up, but cannot get an address. Yes, it is plugged in. I've swapped cables, and ports to make sure. I've also tried both nic's. Right now though, it will get past that. When it gets to starting cron, it just hangs indefinitely.
I tested the ram to make sure it was good. I verified my media. I've tried installing to the second SSD. I've installed to flash. The bios is current. I've combed through the bios settings. I havent been able to find any useful information on cron hanging.
Thoughts?
