ML150 Raid 1 resize
The system is configured as Raid 1. When we installed this sytem we used 2 drives of 130 GB. In the meantime these 2 original drives were broken (one at a time) and we replaced each disk with a bigger one.
The controler is a onboard SAS controler.
The problem now is that a lot of the capacity is not used.
I want to increase the RAID 1 size.
It looks that this is not possible with the MegaRAID Storage Manager, but it sees that the disks we used are 279GB.
What can I do to increase the RAID 1 size?
If you need more information please let me know.
Thanks in advance for the help.

Re: ML150 Raid 1 resize
The second choice is adding a second RAID 1 array and moving your apps/data to it. Leave the OS on the first array only.

Re: ML150 Raid 1 resize
Thanks for you answers but the thing is that I replaced the 2 small broken disks for 2 new bigger disks.
I just want to resize the current mirror.
Is it an idea to:
- convert the mirror to a JBOD
- create a new mirror from the JBOD
or are there better ideas?

Re: ML150 Raid 1 resize
I checked the system but in MegaRaid I see the actual size of physicaldisks (each 279 GB). The logical size of the mirror is 135 GB and I cannot see how I can resize the logical mirror.
To resize the partition I have to increase the mirror first, or not?

Re: ML150 Raid 1 resize
I usually do one array per RAID set. Backup first. Once you expand the array, you can expand the Windows partition using a third party tool.
