extend partition

Hi,

I had a RAID1 of 2*18Gb. I rebuilt the mirror with 2*36Gb disks but the partitions are still using 18Gb of the disk space (original disk size).

How do I now extend my second extended partition to the full disk size ?

I tried with Volume manager from PowerQuest but it doesn't work !?

Cheers,
Didier

Re: extend partition

Hello Didier,
Depending upon the Controller you were using the only choice you would have now is to create another logical drive to use the wasted space.

Hi Sunil,
The server is a DL360G1 and the ctrl is a SmartArray 5i I think!

Do you tell me that the process can be achieve with another raid ctrl ?

Thx,
Didier
