Cannot expand RAID 6 array on P824i-p controller
Hello!
We have ProLiant DL580 Gen10 server with P824i-p MR Gen10 controller (870658-B21). There are 2 logical drives configured:
Array 1: 2x480 Gb SATA SSD disks RAID 1
Array 2: 12x1920 Gb SATA SSD disks RAID 6
We want to expand Array 2 by 2x1920 Gb SATA SSD disks. There is no option "Expand" in MR Storage Administrator. Could you please help us to resolve the problem?

Re: Cannot expand RAID 6 array on P824i-p controller
Hello Praveen,
Thanks. But this doesn't help to resolve the issue. I've read this documentation.
From the documentation https://support.hpe.com/hpesc/public/docDisplay?docLocale=en_US&docId=a00053315en_us

Re: Cannot expand RAID 6 array on P824i-p controller
I'm not sure about the MR Controller and I see no Notice in the Manual, but the SR Controller needs a working Battery Cache Module for Raid transformation.
Can you check this?
Here is a Picture, how it should look like:

Re: Cannot expand RAID 6 array on P824i-p controller
Hello,
can you please share the screenshot of what exact error you are facing during the procedure?
or Controller is not allowing you to extend it?

Hi psingh,
there is no error. We have 1 unconfigured good drive and cannot extend the Array 1 with it.

Re: Cannot expand RAID 6 array on P824i-p controller
Ah, OK, you wrote
Array 1: 2x480 Gb SATA SSD disks RAID 1
Array 2: 12x1920 Gb SATA SSD disks RAID 6
but the controller is talking about array_0 and array_1 ...
Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.
