We have recently decided to upgrade one of our servers from 9G drives to something bigger to increase space. We have two 18G drive available and I was wondering...
I want to swap one 9G with an 18G and let it rebuild...
I want to swap a second 9G with the second 18G and let it rebuild
I then want to put in one of the old 9G and build a new 9G array of of this and left over space from the two 18G.
So end result:
9G #1, 18G #1, 18G #2
9G #2, 18G #1, 18G #2
Is it even possible? My boss seems to think it might be, but I don't. I am pretty sure I could create a software based array for the second array, but I don't know about two hardware based arrays with the same set of disks. Thanks in advanced.
