I'm building a new system to run my OpenServer 5.0.6. I have the following
configuration
Intel Server Board SE7520AF2 motherboard with LSI onboard SCSI Raid
controller
Single Intel Xeon processor
Two Seagate 15000rpm ST318453LW 18gb disks as the Unix install drives.
Hardware mirrored.
Two Seagate 15000rpm ST373453LW 73gb disks as a mountable user drives.
Hardware mirrored.
I have installed the Intel RAID Activation key and added 512 mb memory for
the SCSI Raid controller.
My problem is that when I run mkdev hd to define the second hard disk for
the 73 gig drives, they only show up as 4.4 gig drives. They seem to mount
and run fine at the 4.4 gig size.
My questions:
Is there something special that I must do to get the full capacity of the
drives?
Am I exceeding some arbitrary drive size limit in OpenServer 5.0.6?
Any suggestions?
I have two of these servers to build and need to get this one configured and
running before I order more hardware tha may not work. The second server
will be a 5.0.5 operating system.
Thanks in advance for any assistance
