We have a customer who has the standard 80GB on raid controller card in their ML380G3, and want to upgrade to raid 5.
Is there a good way to do that without reinstalling the OS? (Win2000)
Tnanks in advance

Re: ML380 migration from non-raid to raid
I meant the customer has a 80GB on a SCSI controller card, and want to upgrade to RAID (1 or 5) ...
Is there a good way to do that without reinstalling the OS? (Win2000)

Re: ML380 migration from non-raid to raid
I have not tried this, but in theory it might just work:
1) Perform full system backup in case rebuild is necessary, document any specialized settings, registry entries, shares etc.
2)Power down server and install new Smart Array controller in server, power up
3) Install PSP 7.3 so that the array controller has the latest drivers.
4) shutdown server and cable to array controller.
5) Change system configuration to use SA as the boot controller.
6) Configure array controller via F8 for RAID0
7) verify os will boot
8) install 2nd drive in server (Raid1)
9) using ACU migrate config to RAID1
According to this recent post another customer was able to do this successfully:

Re: ML380 migration from non-raid to raid
If the HDD is connected to a Smart Array Controller (Raid Controller). Then you should be able to add 2x HDDs of equal size (80 GB) and within the ACU (Array configuration Utility) perform a Raid Migration to Raid 5. HP recomends a good back up, latest drivers and firmware for the controller and the latest ACU. I think that SP3 or 4 may need to be installed on the OS as well.
Regards.

Re: ML380 migration from non-raid to raid
Exact model of array Controller or ATA 80 GB is IDE ??? There is no SCSI with 80GB
All previous steps was general, however it still confusing for you and for future advise
