Raid Array

I would like to move a raid array from a Proliant 1500 to my 3000. Suggestions??

Re: Raid Array

Not trying to state the obvious, but ensure you have a couple known good backups first. If this is hardware based RAID I'd make sure you move the drives in the same slot order (1500-Slot 0 to 3000-Slot 0, etc.) and let the array controller in the 3000 "discover" the volume. You may also want to ensure both array controllers are at most current version before and I even think there is a way to save your RAID configuration to diskette within the Array Configuration Utility. Good Luck.
