KZPCC set reconfiguring from RAID0 to RAID1

Hi!
I have KZPCC controller with RAID0 set (2 hard drives), with Tru64 Unix v5.1b installed (DS25 AlphaServer). Can I reconfigure RAID0 (Stripe) to RAID1 (Mirror), without Unix reinstalling? Space usage on this set is ~15%.

Sorry, no. Theoretically it is possible, but the swxcr does not have those smarts. You'll have to make a full backup. Delete the raid-0 drive and use the physical drives to in the group to create a the raid-1 set.
Specially with just 15 % used, which will go to 30% of course, I would feel much more comfortable with raid-1 and it might give a little more (read) speed.
