replace disk - hpux rx2660 - howto

HI!

   I have to change a damaged disk from HP Integrity rx2660 server with HPUX 11.23 ia64.

  It's  a disk from a RAID structure.

  The new disk is not brand new and  it is from another operating system machine. Can I simply erase / delete

the definition of the disk at a server like  Dell Poweredge 1950  and then replace it a the HP RX2660 server, with

the server active, as it is  hot swap disk?

    Will it work?

Regards,

Claudia

It all depends on what disk controller is used.

 

FOr more information send an "ioscan -fn" and google

 

"when good disks go bad".


Hope this helps!

Torsten.
