Add drives to existing raid 5
Hi, I have a ML350 G6 with raid 5 configured. I'm wondering if it's possible to add an additional drive to the raid array without rebuilding the whole array ie. I don't loose any data and just expand the array? If possible, does anyone know how VMware vSphere 5.0 handles this? Do I need to rebuild the datastore or can I just expand it? Thanks, -Patric

Re: Add drives to existing raid 5
hi
you can expand the raid 5 through the ACU
and if the adapter lets you expand when it's
finished you need to rescan the disks from vSphere
and it should adjust to the new size
