HP Proliant Server HDD problems
by Morris 30 Apr '13

30 Apr '13

Machine: Hp Proliant ML 350 HDD: Serial SCSI 72GB x2 Situation: Client restarted the machine and never went beyond the Windows Bootup logo. Reinstalled windows on the second HDD since HDD0 wasn't recognizing partition. Completed OK. Now he wanted HDD1 to boot went ahead and deleted the Array :/ And now HDD1 too unrecognized partition. To say the least there is DATA in those drives Oh and am told HDD0 was producing some sound "clicking" as if the heads are nuts Anyone with an idea? And would deleting an array tamper with the partition Integrity? With Kind regards Morris.

Pasha (Digital Villages) Update
by Paul Kukubo 30 Apr '13

30 Apr '13

Listers further to the discussion last week, please see below: 1. Link to the review report developed by Deloitte on the Pasha centers. This report is developed quarterly. http://www.scribd.com/doc/138670682/2013-04-30-Brief-Pasha-Project. 2. Our press release following the meeting with Pasha Centre owners yesterday and the subsequent announcement of our bandwidth subsidy program. FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Government to offer bandwidth support to Digital Villages Nairobi, 29th April 2013: The Government through the Kenya ICT Board will from May this year offer a 90 per cent subsidy on internet purchase to all Digital villages (Pasha Centres). The bandwidth support will be provided under the Transparency Communication Infrastructure Project (TCIP), which is funded by World Bank. The objective of the Bandwidth Capacity Support is to enable the 63 Digital villages to purchase high quality and affordable connectivity for their centres to enable information sharing and offer affordable access in rural areas. Speaking during a workshop in Nairobi with Pasha Managers, The Kenya ICT Board CEO, Mr Paul Kukubo said, “We have recognized that the major challenges surrounding internet access for Pashas centres are connectivity and affordability. As a solution we have decided to subsidise the internet costs.” The government will pay 90 per cent of the internet access costs while Pasha Managers will pay the remaining 10 per cent. The Initial support will last 18 months and will cover internet connection costs but exclude the purchase of connectivity equipment. To qualify for the internet access subsidy both pasha managers will first identify the Internet Service Providers (ISP’s) that they will work with and submit prescribed documents in order to take advantage of the support. ISPs will have to be registered by CCK as a provider of the services. “Pasha centres are strategically placed to bring ICT services to their communities. To succeed they need to take advantage of devolution opportunities and respond to the government agenda of delivering digital education in remote areas,” challenged Mr Kukubo. The workshop brought together heads of digital villages and leading ISP companies to agree on the modalities that will be applicable on the subsidy.
