hpacucli
I am new to the hp proliant DL380 G3 ( i got it cheap and want to use it as a server at home)
I have 4 HD in Raid 1 all are 72GB HD.
But I only see 72GB available as disk space. Is it correct when I assume I need to install hpacucli to add the HD or partitions ?
I was able to install hpacucli software and it looks like it is running OK. But I have not figured oiut how to add the HD ?
if I go into /dev/cciss/ I see " c0d0 c0d0p1 c0p0p2 c0p0p5 c0p1"
so what do I need to do to be able to use the c0p1. I tried with fdisk but I am unable to add it. I believe I have to use hpacucli to add the HD with but I have no idea how ? I read the "help" and the "add help" but I still do not understand
please help
I do not know if this can help:
if I do cat /proc/driver/cciss/cciss0 iget this :

Re: hpacucli
First of all - hpacucli is ONLY for making LUN's, these are done BEFORE installing the OS. Its the LUN's you see in /dev/ccis. You don't need to do anything more in here to use the disks in Linux.
Except... as you state, you have some kind of failure on Array B - but as it is a RAID-Array it should still work. A bit funny though, as both physical drives look ok. Maybe you should check it some more:
set target ctrl slot=0
ld all show
pd all show
...just to see if some more informaton is coming up.
That aside, before you continue with making any filesystems on the logical drives, check what is already used with df -h
Kind regards
Danny

Re: hpacucli

Re: hpacucli
set target ctrl slot=0
ld 2 delete
array b create type=ld raid=1
I SUPPOSE these commands will work, this is just on the top of my head....
What Linux-dist are you using?

Re: hpacucli
I recommend installing the full version of PSP, and using the discovery tools to identify LUNS. Then the disk partitioning software built into the PSP/Insight web interface will be able to do this configuration for you.

Re: hpacucli
I don't think you can install the HP PSP on Ubuntu/Debian based systems. (You yould try CentOS) But if your intentions are to reconfigure the raid controlller then I suggest you try the HP Smartstart cdrom. This cd is bootable and has the array configuration utility on it. You can also hit F8 at boot time and configure the Raid tough the controllers bios. But some functions/options are not availabe trough the bios.

Re: hpacucli
like I said above when I am in /dev/cciss/ i see array A ( c0d0 c0d0p1 c0p0p2 c0p0p5 ) and array B ( c0d1 ) I belive I am missing the partition on array B
so I guess my question is how do I creat a partition with hpacucli ?
Thanks
