SC10

[balaji_vvv]

We have SC10 which is currently having 6 disks/striped. I want to reconfigure this to lvm disk mirroring. Can anyone let me know what needs to be changed on the SC10 hardware level?
I know software level I can use lvm for mirroring.

Currently SC10 connects to an 11.23 server with 2 scsi HBA's and I’m seeing dual path for each disk.
Can I do mirroring with full bus or it’s only possible with split bus? How to enable split bus? I'm not worry about the current data it’s a fresh install but it will be semi production.
I need to see c2t0d0..c2t1d0..c2t2d0.. mirrored with c3t0d0..c3t1d0..c3t2d0 (just an eg.)

P.S. This thread has been moved from Disk to Disk arrays. - Hp forum moderator

Also do i need to relocate my disk? Currently its all sitting in slot0, slot1,...slot5 (6 disks)?

The SC10 is just a disk chassis, so you need to use either LVM mirroring or hardware RAID.

I would use "split bus" for LVM mirroring, mirror from one bus to another. Just set the dip switch to split bus on both controllers while the chassis is powered off.
