Hi all. I have the server DL360 G3 with two SCSI 36 GB disks in the mirror. I need replacement the 36 GB disks by the 72 GB disks and to clone the all data to the new disks. How do this correct?

Shalom Aleksy,

Few options:

1) Norton Ghost - does not work on new hardware.
2) dd command - hard to use but should duplicate disk byte by byte.
3) http://www.mondorescue.org - uncertain future, a very small operation
4) http://www.acronis.com/

We are testing #4 right now and are very pleased.
