Dear all,
I have a ML110 G7 with a P410 here (no battery pack).
Because the drives were not available at time of delivery and we needed the machine, I took it up and running with one SATA drive.
Now I want to switch over the existing installation to the SAS RAID.
First I generated the RAID - working fine. But how to copy the data over from SATA -> RAID?
This seems to be much more different than I thought:
I tried it to recover a full backup from Acronis backup for SBS, which we use anyway, because Acronis has an option for recovery onto different hardware - didnt work because the new RAID was (due to RAID overhead) apparently some KB smaller than the old drive and thus migration not possible.
Now I cloned the original drive with Paragon onto the RAID, took the old drive out and rebootet.
But now it seems the RAID is broken:
The ROM config Tool displays the Logical drive as "not available".
(could it be I overwrote important RAID information?)
How can I do this?
Could I perhaps copy the data to one standalone SAS drive (no RAID) and then change that into a RAID? Is that possible?
Has anyone an idea?
Also: is it normal that an ML110 G7 needs about 2 minutes alone until the bootscreen with the proliant logo?
Any help much appreciated,
Jan
