Hi,

We have FAStT 500 storage installed and shared between two RS/6000 servers and we have created two arrays of 7 disk each and assigned to servers.WE HAVE TWO ENCLOSURES AND TOTAL 16 DISKS installed two of them are hot spare.Now i want to install 4 more disks on one of the enclosure as we have a space of 4 disks available on EXP500 enclosure.I don't know how to create additional array without disturbing the additional arrays.If any one of u know the procedure to create an array on FAStT 500 pls send me the steps to create an array.I have one more doubt if i create an array of 4 disks then what are the steps to configure RAID-5 on 4 disk or it will automatically take RAID-5 as the existing arrays of 7 disk each are configured on RAID-5.I have to do the installation today night pls help.

Thanx in advance.

Regards

arvind
