Array Expansion on Compaq DL360 (G1)

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

 



I had 2 9gig drives in this one. I have replaced them with 36gig drives. 
That worked fine. 

Now I want to use the extra space, but can't seem to understand how. In 
windows I can just go into disk manager and see the extra space and 
allocate it. But under Redhat 9, even if I reboot, it still says the disk 
is only 9 gig..

****** from dmesg
Compaq SMART2 Driver (v 2.4.25)
cpqarray: Device 0x10 has been found at bus 0 dev 1 func 0

/dev/ida/c0d0p3          1920      2176   1048560   82  Linux swap

How do I get hold of the extra space?

Compaq have some Array Configuration Utility, but only for RH8 and I 
could not get that to work properly. Because it depended on some modules 
that were compiled for RH8-kernel.

Any hints would be appreciated :)
