Create New Array -- SAS1068
System: rx2660 Itanimum server
2x HDD 70GB, bay 7 and 8
I want to use the embedded RAID controller to make an mirroring setup of my disks. HDD in bay 8 contain an hpux operating system, this have been backuped with ignite, planning to restore this after mirroring config is finished.
The problem is to set the HDDs to Primary and Secondary in drvcfg, from the window:
| Create New Array -- SAS1068 |
| |
| Array Type: IM |
| Array Size(MB): ------- |
| |
| Slot Device Identifier RAID Hot Drive Pred Size |
| Num Disk Spr Status Fail (MB) |
| 7 HP DH0072FAQRD HPDC [No] [No] --------- --- 70007 ^|
| 8 HP DH0072FAQRD HPDC [No] [No] --------- --- 70007 *|
Both disks has an gray-out [No] in the RAID Disk colum, means:
тАв The device does not meet the minimum requirements for use in an IM array.
тАв The device is not large enough to mirror existing data on the primary drive.
тАв This disk has been selected as the Hot Spare for the IM array.
Minimum requirement? Both disks are 70GB.
I dont want to mirror the existing data.
None disks are HotSpares.
Any suggestions?
Best regards
Hans Ove

Can you toggle between "yes" and "no"? Maybe this is done with RETURN when the value is under the cursor.
Important: you need to select 2 disks!
Hope this helps!

Re: Create New Array -- SAS1068
BTW, I was wondering if I could create the mirrored pair with 1 disk first, mirror the stand-alone disk to the RAID and add this disk to the RAID later - no way.
The array creation needs 2 drives.
My intention was to work around a new installation or restore with just 2 disks - with 3 disks this will work.
Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.
