Smart Array P410i Embedded Firmware Upgrade Needed

Hello,

 

I am looking for Smart Array P410i Embedded Firmware Upgrade for ProLiant ML350 G6, but I cannot find anything on HP Community, Blog and Support pages. My server's P410i Embedded Adapter's firmware is v2.0 Actually I would like to expand logical volume size on RAID 1 configuration and I could not any document about it. Could somebody help me about this situation ?

 

Thanks for all replies,

 

Mehmet

Re: Smart Array P410i Embedded Firmware Upgrade Needed

Thanks Torsten. It was very helpful.  

I need more help about expanding logical volume on the server. I have Windows Small Business Server 2008 running on HP ProLiant ML350 G6 server. It has p410i embedded storage adapter and it has RAID 1 configured two 72 GB hard drives. I already ordered 2 pieces 300 GB hard drives for replacement and expanding. I could not find any documentation about expanding RAID volume without losing data especially Windows OS system data. How can I find a document about this situation ?

Thanks again,

Torsten.

Ensure the RAID is healthy, pull a disk and insert a new disk. Wait for the rebuild. Pull the other disk and replace. Once the rebuild has finished, expand the array. Finally adjust the file system from OS.


Hope this helps!

Thanks Torsten. RAID is healty right now. After replacing and rebuilding second disk, how can I expand the array ? Is there an utility on ACU or I should do it on BIOS RAID Utility ?

Thanks,

Torsten.

It is an option in ACU (SSA) only shown if the operation is possible.


Hope this helps!
