migrate from Raid 1 to Raid 5 with IX4 - 300 d

I am considering buying an IX4 - 300 d.

But what I want to know: I might consider commissioning with 2 drives in RAID-1 and later on the road buy a 3rd drive to upgrade my RAID-5.

Is this possible on the fly, which means that I can just put in the drive of the 3rd, and I can upgrade to RAID-5 without data loss?

(Yes, I would definitely have a backup before doing this, but I want to go create a new RAID-5 and have the backup copy of the backup data)

And I'll be able to upgrade my drive later RAID-5 3-4 drives?

Sorry, but I think there is no way to change the RAID level "on the fly"...

That means backup your data, Notes users and their share of privileges etc. better as all you network configuration and start from scratch.

  • I'm trying to migrate from Windows 2000 to Windows XP, with all updates.

    original title: sharing fails file of Windows XP Home edition

    I'm trying to migrate from W2K to Windows XP Home edition (Pro/SP3 with all current updates from today ' hui).  My network has several computers with the help of a working group.  I noticed that WXP defines what is called "Simple file sharing" (SFS) that did not exist in W2K.  However, I think that my W2K installation was equivalent to what we call SFS.  What I shared with readers and only granted the permission reading for everyone.  My migration technique involves the use of multiple bootable media to create the Windows XP Home edition system without changing anything on W2K systems.  The I want to share files on separate partitions of the system drive / start / we.  These data partitions are the same drive letters on all systems.  Sharing works as expected in all cases, except that the new system of Windows XP Home edition won't file to other systems (clients).  All client systems receive the same result which is a message access denied as follows:

    \\computer_name\share_name is not accessible.  You might not have permission to use this network resource.  ...

    Not enough server storage is available to process this command.

    On the new system that is unable to use the files, the event log contains a message that says the following:

    The "irpstacksize" server configuration setting is not enough for the server to use a local device.  Please increase the value of this parameter.

    I found a number of items on this site about IRPStackSize.  An inspection of all computers reveals this registry key is not set on any of my systems.  This includes the W2K running on the same computer systems that are capable of serving the same files that fail on Windows XP Home edition, with no problems.  Any of those articles gives no justification for what is an appropriate use for the IRPStackSize value.  Moreover, some articles describe a situation where arbitrarily increase the size works for a short period, but does not seem to be a sustainable solution.  In addition, there is a range of valid values, and some articles describe that max is achieved without solving the problem.

    Therefore, I am skeptical about the idea that there is a real solution.  Can anyone provide an explanation on why specifying a key IRPStackSize is going to help (or not)?  If Yes, what is the right value?

    Hello...

    I have a problem with windows 2003 to windows 2008 migration. I have try several round of flyway of google and youtube, but he is still fail.
    in the first,.
    I have HP Proliant server with windows server 2003. So I restore the backup to a different server HP Proliant wih same hardware specification. I've been back up the System State and the drive C with NTBackup. After I restored on HP Proliant, that I want to migrate, the DNS server is timeout request and the client cannot join domain. I was surprised, because the backup and the material is the same, but it can work as well as the original server.
    in the second case,
    I have windows server 2003 in HP Proliant server and it works well. I'm doing a replication on this server to another windows 2003 server in an another HP Proliant and works of good replication (another user can join the domain). After, I have installed windows server 2008 to another PC and make the replication of the duplication of windows 2003. And this success to replicate, but not on the DNS (DNS query time-out).
    I have the despair to try migrating Windows 2003 and 2008 because he is still fail in DNS. Another way to migrate to Windows 2003 and 2008 with DNS, AD and GPO work?

  • How to create RAID 5 with 6 disks?

    I'm new to vmware. My machine is currently running ESXi 4.1 but the RAID set up gives me no more disk space I was advice to remake the structure of the disc physically to have all 6 disks in RAID 5 and then reinstall ESXi. I'm doing, but I need a direction how to create RAID 5 with 6 disks. Can someone please help with this?

    Thank you

    SD

    Assuming you are using the integrated Smart Array 6i controller it should without a problem. If you can get into the BIOS of conreollers, you can also boot from Smartstart CD and use the ACU (Array Configuration Utility). The ACU has the advantage that you can split the RAID in several logical drives. I usually create a small logical volume (~ 10GB) for the installation of the hypervisor (ESXi) and another large logical volume to the VMFS data store.

  • I can create RAID 0 with the Satellite A200-23 s

    Hello!
    -----
    I have Toshiba Satellite A200-23 s.
    This laptop has two (200 GB) HARD drives.
    Can I create RAID 0 with this HARD drive?
    -----
    P.S. Sorry for my bad English

    Hello

    First you must know that the A200 doesn t series support RAID technology!
    Therefore, the RAID-0 is not possible.

    The phone supports 2 hard drives, but you cannot use RAID settings.
    The two hard drives can be used separately and independent of each other

  • RAID - 1 with 10.11.3 No longer editing

    Hello

    I created a Raid 1 with two drives of 6 TB using the disk through the Terminal commands. Everything worked well.  I've just updated to 10.11.3 and now the reader rises at all.  I looked in the disk utility, and he could not see. I ran the diskutil list command in the terminal and she also could not see the disks.

    Any idea what would cause this?

    My system disk is also a Raid created with disk... utility and it works fine. It is built with two ssds on a PCIe Sonnet Raid 0 card.

    I have a Time Machine backup of the system drive. Should I restore to before the update to fix the problem? If all goes well, there must be a solution. I can't have to 6 worth of material disappearing every time that comes out an update.

    Thank you!

    Well, then the drive is showing now.

    I realized that a reboot was not enough to completely turn off readers and then turn again.

    When I tried to restart the other night, it still does not show upward. I tried to reboot in safe mode and it didn't work either. I turned my computer off... went to work... came home and it was fine.

    My graphics card has a reboot that requires a reboot. When it restarted the car was missing again. I stopped and started place... and the car was back.

    Weird... but solved.

  • Replace drives in Perc 4/Di RAID 1 with the largest capacity of the disks without the need of resettlement

    Hi all

    I need support for readers to replace Perc 4/Di (we need more free space!)

    OS: Windows Server 2003

    Actually: Raid 1-> 2 x 146 GB drives

    Next: Raid 1-> 2 x 300 GB drives

    Volume C: (System Partition)

    Volume D: (data)

    The system partition is on the table. I'm running out of space, so I intend to replace the 146 GB drives with 300 GB drives.

    My question is, how do I replace the array to use all the space on the 300 GB drives without having to reinstall the system? And once I have the table showing 300 GB, what is the best way to extend the system partition and your data?

    Tanks in advance.


  • ESXi4.1 installed on USB can't see raid 5 with storage 6TBs drive

    I installed ESXi4.1 on a usb key, the server has a configuration raid 5 with 6 TB of storage. As we all know Vmware will see LUN 2 TB minus 512 b. How can I create LUNS over there? People mention extensions is there a way to do this. I am not concerned if it is supported so that it works.

    Any help appreciated.

    Welcome to the community - according to the RAID card you have to go to the hardware RAID card BIOS and create logical Volumes that are below the limit of 2 TB.

  • PERC 5i - RAID 5 with 3 drives shows 2 missing discs?

    I have a PE2900 with a PERC 5i, the first volume is a RAID 5 with three disks.  This morning the Controller PERC says two of the drives (MAXTOR SAS 68 GB 10 K rpm) are missing.

    Is it normal to lose two discs at the same time accurate?  Or would it be the controller going wrong?

    Is there anyway to test these discs without breaking the virtual disk?  Or am I out of luck of losing two of the three disks in a RAID 5?

    Then on the VD MGMT screen, highlight the controller at the top left, F2, foreign Import.

    He must move one of the stranger online and leave the other failed... things leave until you can confirm the operating system starts and is ok, then you can rebuild the remaining disk.

  • Migration from HP-PARISC to HP Itanium platform with 11i to R12 upgr

    Hello

    I need to accomplish the following tasks-

    The PARISC HP HP Itanium server integrity server upgrade
    Upgrade database Oracle 10 g 2 to 11 GR 2
    E business Suite Upgrade from 11.5.10.2 to R12 12.1.3

    I think of the following approach-

    I am aware that the 11i applications is not supported by HP Itanium.
    I'm 1st upgrade 10.2.0.4 Database 11.2.0.x on source HP PARISC
    Then install 11 GR 2 (software only) to target Itanium HP.

    After that, I'm not sure about the next steps. I doubt as who is going to be an approach appropriate in the following 2 -.

    Upgrade to 11.5.10.2 to 12.1.1 PARISC HP source and then cloning of PARISC HP to HP Itanium (don't know if its compatible, please confirm if we can do in this situation the cloning)

    or

    Import/export of Perform from source to target to help Note.557738.1
    Run applications update to the source HP 11.5.10.2 to 12.1.1 PARISC and then migrate from platform to help notes 438086.1 .


    I pray the gurus advising me please with a good approach.

    Thank you
    Khan

    I'm 1st upgrade 10.2.0.4 Database 11.2.0.x on source HP PARISC

    Correct - Database interoperability Notes Oracle EBS 11i with Oracle 11 g 2 (11.2.0.1) [ID 1265268.1]

    Then install 11 GR 2 (software only) to target Itanium HP.

    In this step, see (using Oracle EBS with a layer of database Configuration from Split on 11 GR 2 [946413.1 ID]) - you will have to follow (database to migrate HP PA-RISC (Option C) to HP Itanium).

    In doing the above, you have Oracle Database 11 g 2, installed on the machine HP Itanium (so, no need to export/import the database later).

    After that, I'm not sure about the next steps. I doubt as who is going to be an approach appropriate in the following 2 -.

    Upgrade to 11.5.10.2 to 12.1.1 PARISC HP source and then cloning of PARISC HP to HP Itanium (don't know if its compatible, please confirm if we can do in this situation the cloning)

    Cloning is not a valid option here.

    or

    Perform export/import source to the target using Note.557738.1

    No need to import/export that you have already migrated the database 11 GR 2 (as shown above).

    Run applications update to the source HP 11.5.10.2 to 12.1.1 PARISC and then perform a platform migration using the notes 438086.1.

    Fix.

    For example, the steps are:

    1) upgrade the 10.2.0.4 database to 11.2.0.x on source HP PARISC
    (2) to migrate the database from HP Itanium, 11 GR 2
    (3) 11i to R12 on PARISC HP update
    (4) migrate layer Application R12 to HP Itanium

    You could also log an SR to confirm that the foregoing with Oracle support.

  • Reference Dell T610 with 5 hard drive problem (5x2TB) while create RAID 5 with all the HARD drive. :(

    Dear Sir.

    While I have already configured the RAID 5 with 5 disks, then the OS (windows 2008 R2) installation step I saw 2 separate partitions. and can I install it on the partition with only 2 TB. Another, we can't. So during my installation completed OS, then I can use only 2 TB, for another volume is about 5 TB can't do anything. Can I do the RAID 5 with 5 disks (10 TB)?

    I wait your helpful to my set.

    Thank you.

    silamay
    This is new server, there is not any data yet so I can reinstall. What I want is that I just want to RAID 5 until I started my DC project. I already look for how to convert to GPT, but I'm not at all.  I know that I can't convert GPT as the OS in the same disk but that is because I try to configure RAID 5 and OS, but while over OS I do not see another 5 to just see only 2 TB.

    I don't understand most of what you wrote.  You must activate the UEFI (below), then convert to GPT before installing Windows.

    silamay
    How can I install on a UEFI system?

    The T610 supports UEFI, but must be allowed.  Start the BIOS (F2) Setup and change the boot mode in the UEFI instead of BIOS/inheritance.

    Your alternative is to create a RAID 5 using all disks, but the definition of the size as something as small as 2 to, then another RAID 5 with space remaining.  Each table will be displayed in Windows as a separate 'drive' - you can then install normally in the smallest 'drive '.

  • migration from Outlook Express loses everything after 'group '.

    Hello
    I migrated from Outlook Express to Thunderbird on XP, then moved the files to Windows 8.
    I had a 'group' in my OE address book. Nothing after that that group name (which began with an H) has been migrated to the new address book. In other words, I lost everything after H.

    I also have these contacts on Gmail. Y at - it an easy way recover of EO (I guess I could remove the Group and start over, but it's a long process and I'm afraid to lose the mail I already sent on tuberculosis), or y at - it an easy way to get from gmail?

    Thank you.

    S

    There are several solutions to your problem, which is the best for you which I do not pretend to know.

    There is the possibility of simply to copy the WAB to outlook express for Windows 7 and double click it to him bringing in the windows contacts folder. I have instructions here http://thunderbirdtweaks.blogspot.com.au/2013/12/windows-contacts.html that include the Windows Contacts folder in Thunderbird.

    Alternatively, you can install one of the Add-ons to gmail contact sync. I use https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/google-contacts

    Hello luckyduck, as is the case with xmarks too, the overwhelming majority of the addons is not created by mozilla, but by independent third-party developers. so if you want to know if it is planned an extension for firefox on android porting or have other requests for features, please communicate with the developers involved directly in order to get a better answer. Thank you for your understanding!
