Mirrored Drives Puzzle
Dear All
I'm currently experiencing an issue with my mirrored drives in a DL360 - I'm trying to recover a server that was once a DL380 but I don't have a spare DL380 so I've placed one of the mirrored disks into a DL360. I only have one of the disks available. The OS boots fine from the disk in the DL360 but when I add a second disk it does not rebuild the mirror. I've looked in the array config and it appears that the existing array is looking for a missing disk on SCIS Channel 2.
I have deducted that the two disks in the DL380 were on SCSI Channel 1 and SCSI Channel 2 but the DL360 only has the single channel. So the raid controller has read the array config from the disk and decided that it is missing a disk from SCSI Channel 2 even though that channel does not physically exist in the server.
Does anybody know how I can fix this and retain the data currently residing on the single disk on the DL360.
Thanks

Thanks for the prompt responce.
Good document but it does not solve the problem. Unfortunately I was not able to 'split' the mirrors before the disk was removed from the DL380. So effectively it still thinks its part of a mirrored pair on a DL380.
