MSA60 Migration
Can I just plug the MSA60 into the new server, and boot it up?
Is it that easy?
thanks

Re: MSA60 Migration
Whatever you do, always take good backups before moving the MSA60 to the new server.

Re: MSA60 Migration
The old onr is a (273915-B21) Smart Array 6402 128MB controller on a ML570 G3.
Old OS is Windows 2003. New OS will be Windows 2008 Standard. I don't care too much about the letter drives or anythign. Can deal with that. Just don't want to lose the data and have to go to tape.

Re: MSA60 Migration
The 6402 is a parallel (traditional) SCSI controller. The new server has a P410 SAS/SATA controller. You can not connect the MSA50 to the P410 controller.
SA controller summary in http://h18004.www1.hp.com/products/servers/proliantstorage/arraycontrollers/?jumpid=reg_R1002_USEN
The new server has both PCIe and PCI-x slots so you would need to put a 6402 in the new server as well and it is supported. See the "SCSI Controllers for External Drive/Storage Support" section in
http://h18004.www1.hp.com/products/quickspecs/13161_na/13161_na.html
You still need to verify the driver availability for the SCSI controller (and maybe the MSA50) in Win2008.

Re: MSA60 Migration
Please verify the server, array, MSA hardware on the old server environment.

Re: MSA60 Migration
I sent the wrong controller. I sent the original that came with the server. This is what the MSA60 is connected to.
(381513-B21) HP Smart Array P800 Controller - storage controller (RAID) - Serial ATA-150 / SAS - PCIe
Will I need to pull this? The P400 isn't compatible?

Re: MSA60 Migration
To connect the MSA60 you either buy a P411 (external connectors only) or pull over the P800.

Re: MSA60 Migration
Set the P410 as the boot.
Am I to connect the MSA60 to the P800. Turn both on and then it is that easy? It will just see the partitions?
Will the shares still be there or do they need to be recreated?
thanks

Re: MSA60 Migration
Will this move the same and remember the partitions and logical drives?
Or is there something else I need to do?
thanks
