We bought Proliant ML110 g5 server. I have now installed the OS (XP, because our invoice-database runs best @ xp)
I was wondering if its possible to install one more 250gb disk inside and enable RAID 1 ? Or do i have to make "fresh" install and hit the f6 during windows install ?
Thank you for any information you can give!
Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: Proliant ml110 G5 raid after os?
If I understood correct following these steps below, I can build RAID 1 after installing OS. Just connect one more 250gb disc and do steps 1 to 7?
The hdd what is now installed on the system has two logical drives C: & D: does this affeted in some way the RAID operation (steps 1-7)?
We salute you King Karlo ;)
------------------------------------
1. Install the OS with Embedded SATA RAID Disabled (No Drivers or F6 required) on one Harddrive.
2. Once OS is installed, Extract the Embedded SATA RAID Drivers to a folder. HP Embedded SATA RAID Controller Driver for Windows 2000/Windows Server 2003:
Click here to go to HP Embedded SATA RAID Controller Driver for Windows 2000/Windows Server 2003 http://h18007.www1.hp.com/support/files/server/us/download/26742.html
3.
Go to Control Panel-> Add New Hardware->Device is connected->New Hardware->Raid Controller->Have Disk->Browse to the folder where the Embedded SATA RAID Drivers were extracted. Select the .inf file->Install Adaptec Raid Driver.
4. Restart the Server go to BIOS enable the Embedded SATA RAID.
5. Press F8 and go to Sata Raid BIOS->Configure the Drives->Create Array->Raid 0/1 A warning message will appear " Warning: Configuring the drives will erase all Array information from the selected drives, if that drive is part of an array. Arrays using any of these drives as members will be affected! Do you want to continue?(Yes/No): ". Press "Y" to continue.
6. If Raid 1 is selected it will ask you what is the Source Disk, select the Right Disk in which OS was installed previously. Warning message might appear again. Select " Y".
7. Rebuild will take sometime, once rebuild is complete restart the server.
Once rebooted Raid would be detected and windows would boot up, in windows it would detect new hardware and Adaptec Raid drivers will be installed. Now Server is built migrated to Raid Successfully.

Re: Proliant ml110 G5 raid after os?
you know that's a very good question about the the 2 partitions
but I think it won't affect the procedure at all so just install the driver - enabled RAID - create the mirror and go to go
bye
