Hi there.
I have Proliant DL 380 G5 with 8 bays of 2.5" HDDs. I have installed:
- SmartArray P400_512MB BBWC controller
- 5x 73GB configured as RAID-5 (lets call it RAID_A)
- 3x 300GB configured as RAID-5 (RAID_B)
- all above drives are connected to the same P400
RAID_A on 73GB's drives is small - 292GB of logical data, RAID_B is bigger - 600GB of logical data. I need more space for data from RAID_A.
So is there any option to on-line migrate data between RAID_A and RAID-B on the same P400 Smart Array with 512MB cache BBWC ? If so - what is procedure ?
Because I tried to look for technical documenation and it was described ony on-line expansion and migrating RAID, but beetween 2 hardware controlers. Actualy I plan to migrate data on the same controler.
Thanks in advance for any ideas !
