Re: Expanding Disk Space on Proliant DL360 G6
If you do not want to invest in BBWC, then one more HDD can be purchased as an option.
It's all your choice.

Re: Expanding Disk Space on Proliant DL360 G6
- buy 2 drives of 300 GB
- make an offline-image of your 2 146er´s
-
- With HP SmartStart-CD,
clear the array-config (& the new drives)
create new array & LDs on the new drives,
(Raid1, Mirror, same as used before (!)
with proportional resizing regarding
the old config)
- restore your offline-image to the new drives (with resizing NTFS-Partitions)
You can use Acronis TrueImage & DiskDirector for this job, I think TrueImage meets it alone.
The old disk are for sure, you can
use them later as datadisk (mirrored :-)
(Another scenario would be to move one
partition (ie D: or E:) to a new/second
harddrives/raid, but that does not work
if your C:-drive is 146 GB and the only
one in the system :-)
Good Luck
Ralf

Re: Expanding Disk Space on Proliant DL360 G6
If you have, insert the HDD and use the HP Array Configuration Utility to Migrate RAID 1 to RAID5 online from the Wizard Tab. Wait until the Transformation complete, then use third party software such as Partition Magic to extend your partition. Server 2003 does support expand option if the volumes contains System OS and Pagefile. Only 2008 support expand with the system partition.
