Adding disk to form mirror

Hi,

I have a DL308 G3 that was installed with a single disk (36GB U320 SCSI 10K rpm).

Is it possible to add another disk to create a RAID 1 group with the initial disk?

TIA,


Best Regards,

Rui Vilao.

Hello Rui,
yes, you can add a second disk in your server and create a RAID 1, this kind of server has a Smart Array 5i embedded.
insert your new disk an configure it from Array configuration utility.

hi Rui

yes you can

like Mynor says add the new HDD open the Array Configuration utility(ACU) and make a migration process RAID 0 to RAID 1

see the ACU manual, page 24 http://urlao.com/acu
Process:
- Expand
- Extend
- migration

regards
I hope this can help you
