Hi,

Is it possible to upgrade from RAID 5 to 7 on AIX w/o loosing data. If not what will be the procedure?

Thanks
 
What are you exactly saying ?

AIX only supports software mirroring and/or striping. If you are running an external hardware RAID device, you'll need to check with the vendor.

I've not heard of RAID-7 though. And I can't find my RAID handbook from the RAID Advisory Board either.

Bill.
