Change Partition size on Hp Pro ML570 G2
Hp Pro ML570 G2;
RAID 1, tow storage 36G;
Smart Array Controller 642;
Windows Server 2003;
Tow servers which have same configuration.
Question:
The Size of C is too small, I want to change it. But I must ensure Domain controller runing.
I want to solve it as follow:
1. Copy necessary data of Domain controller.
2. Pull out one storage drive(2) and insert into the other server without any other storage drive.
3. Setup the storage drive(2),then install and configure Windows server 2003 and ensure it same as old Domain controller.
4. Resume data of the old Domain controller on the "new Domian Controller".
5. Erase the storage drive(1) of old Domain controller .
6. Install the storage drive(2) on old Domain controller, then insert (1) into it.
7. Configure RAID 1 newly.
Can I do it on the way?
What I must prepare?
Plese teach, thanks.

What is the disk C size ?
I don't think your plan will work:
you cannot copy Domain controller data and move it to different server, only "dcpromo" operation may be used.

You can use, for example, Partition manager
http://www.partition-manager.com/corporate/server/
or Symantec VolumeManager
http://sea.symantec.com/content/product.cfm?productid=7
You can move page file from disk C to free some space as well.

Re: Change Partition size on Hp Pro ML570 G2
If PQMagic 4.0 = Partition Magic, you use outdated version. Current version of Partition magic is 8.05.
Anyway, DO FULL BACKUP before any partition utility using.

Don't move drives between server - you can crash OS.

Re: Change Partition size on Hp Pro ML570 G2
do you have free space at the end of your C: partition? If yes, please take a look at the diskpart utilitiy from microsoft.
