|
|
I have an already set-up Netra server which I have just put a second disk in.
I have seperate / /usr and /var partions on the first disk.
Does anyone know of any good instructions for migrating to mirrored (Raid 1) partitions? |

Hi coutts99,
if you have enough room for backups on your disks you could give theese a try:

the proposal is to backup the original partition
create the RAID devide and then restore from the backup to the RAID.

Here's a useful Tutorial I found on the forums. I started to try and got hung up on a few details I'm a little worried about. If anyone would take a look at the link and maybe respond to my last post I would be grateful. I just don't want to lose all my info. I am going to be trying it on a test box at work using grub so I'll let u know how it goes there but using the silo I'm still a little paranoid.
