Place you RAID0 RAID1 by adding a drive

Hi, I have a single drive of course configured as raid0. I bought a new drive of the same and I would now add this disk and change the type of raid in raid1 without loss of data. In openmanage if I click on the virtual drive raid0, I can choose reconfigures and in the next screen, I can add the new drive, and then change the type of raid in raid1. Can you confirm me it reconfigure alone will make a copy of the data on the new disk without data loss?

Thank you

Kappa85,

This is the correct process, the term for what you are wanting to do is called a Raid level Migration. It should reflect the existing Raid 0 unit to the new and changing raid 1 without loss of data. You can read more about hereRaid level migration.

Let me know if it helps.

  • Mounting NFS in a VM vs adding a drive in a NFS data store

    Let's say I have an NFS server to provide storage to a VMware Server

    farm.

    And I just need to put a file on the NFS to a VM server available.

    How can I better performnace.. ?

    (1) Just directly editing this file NFS in the Virtual Machine (using the NFS OS client)

    or

    (2) adding a drive in the Virtual Machine (using a NFS store - mapped on this dossier in the NFS server)

    M.A.

    If you want to use the functionality of VMware snapshot, certainly NFS datastore is your best bet but I think that performance wise, by storing files directly by the NFS client without needing more TCP or i/o load for the virtual disk can give you better performance.

    Management & recovery wise, live sharing the NFS server can make your life very easy for other machines can read or access the files inside without problem but don't forget, sometimes it also can give you headache. While for vmdk, you need tool to access the files inside.

    Just my 2 cents

  • PE T610 - Perc 6i - strange state after adding additional drives

    Hello

    We have a PE T610 with a PERC 6i controller.

    X SATA 1: 2 250 GB virtual disk in a RAID-1

    X SATA 2: 3 500 GB of disk virtual in a RAID-5

    We have added 3 additional 2 TB drives to the server.  A drive has been designated as a Global Hot Spare.  Two other readers have been added to the Bay RAID-5.

    I predicted, using 500 GB each among the readers added two for Virtual Disk 2.  Then, I had planned to use the other 1.5 to among the readers as Virtual Disk 3 in a RAID-1 array.  I did it with other servers in PE in the past.

    But after that the 500 GB is used from each of the discs, I can't used the remaining unused space.  It shows the 'available RAID disk space' as 0.00 GB.

    Why the remaining space on these disks is not available for me to use?

    Thanks for any help on this.

    «I've waited with 500 GB each among the readers added two for Virtual Disk 2.»  Then, I had planned to use the other 1.5 to among the readers as Virtual Disk 3 in a RAID-1 array.  I did it with other servers in PE in the past. »

    This was allowed on a VERY small number of controllers found in Dell servers.  Anyway, you can do that on 6 PERC.  You can replace your existing 3 drives with 2 TB drives, then create a second table (6 to) on the disks (all disks in a disk group must have the amount of space available and impossible to replace the drives with the greatest and to increase the existing RAID array size).

  • You can use an external hard drive with the Mac Mini?

    I've seen videos that say that we cannot increase the ram on a min of Mac, but I'm curious if this works like an ordinary computer, if we can attach an external hard drive to store some of the memory to free up space. Sorry if this is something stupid just need to know what I can do with it.

    You can use an external hard drive to boot and run with any Mac. Its not going to improve or replace your ram. If you use a mechanical hard drive in any Mac then help and boot from an external drive, especially if it's a SSD will be significantly faster.

  • Error 0x800704b3 when you try to map a network drive

    Hello

    I have the following error message when you try to map a network drive in my home network:
    "\\iomegahmd cannot be reached" and the error code is 0x800704b3.

    I already looked in the services, and my strong assumption is that the problem is that 'TCP/IP NetBIOS Assistance' service is not statrted and it is disabled. When I try to start it, there is an error message:
    "The system could not find the specified path".

    I also checked the dependency of the 'TCP/IP NetBIOS Assistance' service components:
    Auxiliary function for Winsock driver
    NetBT
    TCP/IP protocol driver
    NetIO-legacy-TDI Support driver
    in the Device Manager is running, but they are all running. Startup is set to 'system '.

    Under the properties of version 4 of TCP/IP Internet of the wireless device, under Advanced-> WINS I ve put enable NetBIOS over TCP/IP, but it helps t is not either.

    What else could try, so that I can map network drives?

    I should also mention, that the problem persists for a few weeks. Before, it was working properly. In addition, on other computers on my network I don't have access to the same network drive problem.

    Thanks in advance,
    Tithe

    > I should also mention that the problem persists for a few weeks. Before, it was working properly.

    It of difficult to say what's wrong in your case. My first idea is: put installation beginning point of time before this error appeared.

    I recommend also to disable all security software and check if you experience the same problem.

  • "You must format the disk in drive J: before you can use it"

    Says error message "You must format the disk in drive J: before that you can use" I have a removable USB storage drive that I always connected to my computer whenever I have download movies save disk space on my computer.  Now, he wants me to format this disk storage.  Also, where he used to qualify this drive as "Removable disk", it is not labeled as Local J: drive. I don't want to format this drive because it erases all my files and folders on removable USB storage drive.  Please help me.

    I had the same problem.
    And I have a solution for you... The problem is that when you plug in your HD first, Windows 7 install your hard drive and associate it with only this USB port (whether the USB port "4") If you want to use (HD) again, you need to plug it into the same USB port (USB port '4'), where it was first installed. It's stupid! But that's how it worked with my HD.

    Try all USB ports you have on your PC.

    Good luck.

    Hope this has been helpful. : D

    PS: the same problem is with all the damage that connect you to your pc.
