DL580 G5 array configuration: 1 MIrror, 1 RAID 5 on same controller

 

DL580 G5 array configuration: 1 MIrror, 1 RAID 5 on same controller

Hello! I am wondering how to do this...

I have 2 mirrored drives running Windows 2008 x64 on my DL580 G5 and want to add 6 additional drives in a RAID 5 configuration on the same controller. The second controller already has a RAID 5 configuration on 7 drives with 1 hot spare. I don't want to change this in any way. Thanks for the input, suggestions and help!

I'm downloading the HP ProLiant Array Configuration Utility for Windows, which should do the trick... I'm more looking for any issues that I should look out for... anything that may trip me up and cause me pain. Thanks!

Nope should not have any issues, have the controller firmware and driver upgraded to latest before creating the array . Cheers
