I need to move a Bl460c G7 blade to another C7000 enclosure. The server is attached to a D2700 SAS direct attached storage through a 6GB SAS Switches which are also inserted in old C7000. I need to know if the server's RAID controller, the SAS switch and D2700 will retain RAID configuration after I move them to another C7000.
Thank you
for people having this same problem (i doubt anyone will experience it) with the exact OA error logs that were repeating with a few seconds between them were:
Blade x Ambient Temeperature Sensor fault...state is DEGRADED.
Blade x is reporting normal health status.
Blade in bay #x status changed from Degraded to OK.
Blade x Ambient Temperature state is OK.
the hp support at our only local hp partner was of no help at all. thankfully after many hours of banging my head against the wall and disecting every inch of storage blade's components, turns out the jack that's apparently that of the temperature sensor was on backwards. boy was that a relief! check the picture to see what i mean. thanks everyone!
I have the same hardware. There is just NO possibility to manage disks online. On only have access to status. This is one of the worst situation I ever seen.

Yes. The RAID configuration is stored on disk in Smart Array controller setups. You won't lose your configuration unless you explicitly alter the RAID configuration (e.g. deleting a logical drive)
I would move the blade server, then the SAS interconnect and make sure they're recognized. Once that's confirmed, then I'd attach the D2700 enclosure.
