Hi all,
I heated discussion was had yesterday and we have 2 techie with opposing ideas on the way forward for DL385 G8 Array configurations. Lets have a generic server with 6 physical HDs.
Method 1
Is to create 1 array with 2 physical disk and make a logical drive raid 1 with that.
Then create array2 using the other 4 physical disk and then make a logical drive raid 5 with that.
.
Method 2
To create 1 array wth 6 physical drives. Then make a logical drive raid 1, then a second logical drive raid 5.
.
What is the recommended route these days?
If a physical drive fails with Method 2 wil all logical drives be affected?
TIA
