Re: Incrase disk space by using different size disk set.

Hi,

Jesus said:

"Yes, with two disks, 300 Gb, you can create a new disk group."

As far as I'm aware that is incorrect.

A disk group must have a minimum of 8 disks.

Cheers,

Re: Incrase disk space by using different size disk set.

Hi,

Two more disks. A total of eight disks to create an disk group.

Sorry the language but my English is poor.

Thanks.

Re: Incrase disk space by using different size disk set.

Thanks,

But there is no more space for another 2 disks. Then I have to go for another disk enclosure that I don't have.

Thanks & Regards

Re: Incrase disk space by using different size disk set.


With only one disk enclosuere you can have one disk group.

1 enclosure = 14 HD = 1 Disk group

Your originally got 8 HD, and now has bought 6 more, and are 14.

To make two DISK GROUP you must have at least two enclosures

Thanks.

Hi All,
thanks for all who given support to me.
Finally we purchase 146 GB disks and add them to existing disk group as a timely best solution.

Thanks guys
