Move HDDs to new hardware Well, hard drives were not recognized by the second server. I put both disks as disks, because I did not want to overplay the second server Configuration Utility and saw the two discs ready to create a new arrangement, and at no time told me they were foreign disks (the same behavior rebooting and using ACU from the BIOS). For So, what I can create a new array with two drives and then access the information? Or the creation of an array clears the information of the discs? Thanks |

Move HDDs to new hardware Well I have some news, I put both disks in the second server online as an additional array but both disk were not recongnized and the only option it gave me was to create a new array (with ACU and restarting the server and pressing F7 to enter ACU during POST). So I did not create nothing in oder to preserve the information. I called HP support and told me that was because of some ID that the old server put in the disk information that only is recognized for the same model of server, and because the DL180 is a different server is correct that the HDDs are not recognized. So, another way is to |

Move HDDs to new hardware Ok, I'm going to try this, shutdown down the server, put only one of the HDDs and start the system. Im going to see what reports the storage controller at POST, if say that there is something to do with the configuration utility during POST or with ACU in the operating system. I suppose when there is a risk to loose something the system tells you that the HDDs is going to be erase for example. If the situation is that nothing es possible to do, then the second chance is to put the other one. |

Move HDDs to new hardware Is possible to put only one of the HDDs in the second server online, i say without having to shut down the server, and I think that the server is going to see the configuration of the HDDs and realize that is part of a RAID 1/1+0 array. My fear is to put both HDDs and for some reason lost the information. Do you think is possible? |
