I have a PowerEdge 2550 that was setup as a basic disk setup. My goal would be to get the raid active.
Here is the current disk setup:
5 x 36Gig Scsi HD's
PERC 3 128 mb
(54 meg dell partition, 4 gig OS partition, 78 gig data partition and 53 unallocated gigs)
I thought that the earlier person had setup the system as a raid but upon a closer look, it appears that everything is just configured as
basic disks. Is there a way that I can rebuild so that the data is in a Array without having to format and rebuild the OS?
What raid config would you recommend. I'm open to suggestions. Let me know if you need me to be more verbose in anything else.
Thanks a lot! (Tek-Tips has saved me a few times and hoping for another)
