HP P2000 G3 Replacement disks

Hello!!!

You need to replace the 12 discs 1 Tb on 2 Tb in HP P2000 G3 (Raid 6 11 +1 hot spare ).  

Tell me how to do it properly.

If you just swap the disks, the capacity will remain the same.

So backup the data, delete all LUNS, vidisks, etc, swap the disks, create the vdisks, ... and restore finally the data.


Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.

Re: HP P2000 G3 Replacement disks

you use expand vdisk to add new disks to an existing vdisk. but the array can not use the additional space on a replacement disk, that is larger than the original.

Hope this helps!
