Re: Replace with ML 350
(you need to find the right NDIS2 DOS driver for your network card and use ghost boot disk creation )
then make a full backup of your server from windows ( exchange stopped !!! )
(twice is better ! on new tapes !!! ).
check your backup before doing any changes !
Prepare you target host for ghost (free disk space ), ghostcast installed.
Set all exchange service to DISABLED
Then you have 2 choices:
- ghost each partition seperatly (system MUST be unchanged) by this way you can change the size of the other partition when restoring the others partitions. The better way... (use only fast compression)
- ghost the entire disk and put the system like it is on the new disk and create new partitions (or use disk magic or third product to extend partitions).
the best is to make twice ghost if you have enough time. Use a separated LAN or cross cable to have the best speed to ghostcast.
----
create the new RAID with Bios enabled utility (or smartstart) depending on your raid card.
(put the utility partition if there is one/ from smartstart or from ghost)
(gdisk utility could be used to hide utility partition )
restore the disk system as it is.
restore each volume sizing them as you want.
---
the first restart need probably to be in safe mode, but you can try to do a normal start. After starting open disk manager to validate all partitions changes.
restart the system
activate exchange and verify all is working fine.
restart to check automatic restarting of all
Make a new backup after this point.
Don't process any service pack installation during this changes.

Re: Replace with ML 350
gdisk is not needed but eventualy if the utility partition comes not hidden you can use it (it is a ghost tools to create or modify partition at the command prompt)
Just verify if you can see your raid from a dos boot disk without using some ASPI card driver. Some raid are need aspi drivers under dos mode.
