@Mike-Ralston is not your average intern.

I would assume so. But he's already at a senior L1 level or even L2 level with everything he's done in training with @scottalanmiller, etc. So that's a bad example.

I don't think that's too uncommon. I did work study when I was in highschool. It was unpaid though.

I think that the best answer here is going to be this....
@Lakshmana, you need to be looking for another job. The company that you are at now does not have someone qualified to be your mentor, it doesn't even have someone qualified to be your student. You need to work at a place with a qualified IT professional working there that you can work under. It can be someone very junior, that doesn't matter, as long as they are actually an IT professional. The person you are working for right now is a con artist. He doesn't know the first thing about IT and is not helping you to learn but is just wasting your time which is the same as throwing away your career.
You don't have the money to do lots of IT at home. That makes things very rough. But you aren't getting to do good work and good learning at work, so this is an impossible situation. I know that this is your first job, but it is a bad one. There is no future in this company and working there is going to hold you back. Start looking for something else. You need to get out and find a company that will help you learn and grow so that you can have a successful career.

Nope, he's much younger than your average intern

Still WAY more qualified than most of the guys I work with in L1 at my current full-time job.

He's confused and is causing problems, rather than fixing them. He's not responding logically to the scolding. He should be learning what RAID is, not stopping you from fixing problems.

The motherboard at one company is not working and it was fired.Now I tested with the motherboard A and configured RAID 1 in hard A1 and A2.Then I tested the hard disk in the other motherboard B and inserted the hard disk A1 and A2.So the RAID is working properly.So I need to suggest them the motherboard to be buyed them.So now I finished checking RAID.But my senior engineer said me to check the SAMBA server also to verify the sharing of Data -

Most of them probably didn't intern. Interns or people who did internships tend to be the top end of the field because they are the ones able to and interested in getting into the field earliest and in the most productive way.

I started my career at an internship. My first real IT job started as an internship, which was how I first met @scottalanmiller and @Minion-Queen.

It proves you can setup SAMBA. It proves you have a network connection. It doesn't prove anything more than you already have by testing the disks on a new motherboard and accessing everything locally.

@scottalanmiller, I understand the situation @Lakshmana is in. He reads it here and it makes sense, but trying to take what you read here and then regurgitate it to someone else who then fires questions you're not necessarily prepared for is another thing. He probably has tried relaying this to his boss and/or the senior engineer. Then they say something that frazzles him and it makes him feel stupid (not that he is) and his boss/senior engineer feel superior/right. Been there many a time with discussions with coworkers about a plethora of topics.

This is very important. The client could easily be left with no working RAID and your senior engineer will claim that he has tested it without having tested anything. He's avoiding knowing his job and hoping to cover up that he doesn't understand what is going on.

But it is unrelated to checking the raid or motherboard replacement. Infact why would all the config not still be there that was from before the replacement. There should be no reason to reimage with a motherboard replacement (especially of the same model).

Even of a different model since there is no connection between the board and the RAID. Only issue is if the drives re-identify themselves. Same issue you have on every reboot of a Cisco UCS - a great reason to avoid that garbage.

Whaaaaaaaa? I've never seen a drive blow off a profile in UCS. What in the world have you been doing?

I've seen it a lot. VMAX over FCoE to large UCS blade chassis. Drive IDs flipped constantly. One of many, many complications that made the UCS just the crappiest gear I've ever seen a business duped into buying in the last decade.
