novell server recovery raid data recovery imageWe’ve been involved with the deployment, configuration and maintenance of Novell Servers since the earliest versions of 286.x.  We’re specialists at Novell Server Recovery. If your server has failed, the following actions taken could decide the successful recovery or possible complete loss of data. The single biggest cause of data loss is user error – which includes DIY data recovery. Please contact us. We will prevent the chance of further data damage.

Typical crashed Novell Servers we encounter:

  • Novell volume is corrupt or will not mount
  • FAT (File Allocation Table) or DET (Directory Entry Table) becomes corrupt
  • Failure of VRepair volume repair (NWFS)
  • Failure of Rebuild utility (NSS)
  • Novell server raid failure
  • Disappearance of storage pools or logical volumes
  • Data mirror mismatch inconsistencies (possibly bad sectors)
  • Multiple allocation errors (possibly bad sectors)
  • Corrupted Hot fix tables
  • Corrupt partition table
  • Server hardware failure
  • Storage failure
  • Accidental data deletion
  • Accidental volume format or delete
