NEWBIE Q: expanding hardware RAID

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi all,
 I have a dell PowerEdge 1850 server with 146gb HDs setup using (I
think) hardware RAID.

1. Is there anyway that I can confirm if the HDs are indeed setup
using hardware RAID? (hopefully without rebooting the system) And if
so, how do I determine the tech details of the RAID setup?

2. I'm planning on buying additional dell drives and was wondering how
I could go about growing/expanding the current RAID setup to include
the new drives. Is there any documentation on expanding hardware RAID?
( I found doc on growing software RAID on the mailing list's wiki but
none on hardware RAID.)

I really really hope someone can help me with these questions, please.
Also, if this is not the right forum (and there is a more relevant
forum) for these questions, please do let me know.

Thanks much in advance!

Best,
Anil
