Configuring Storage : Creating Storage Configuration Using MSM : Changing a Virtual Drive Configuration

Changing a Virtual Drive Configuration

You can use the Modify Drive Group wizard in the MegaRAID Storage Manager software to change the configuration of a virtual drive by adding drives to the virtual drive, removing drives from it, or changing its RAID level.

*ATTENTION  Be sure to back up the data on the virtual drive before you change its configuration.

*NOTE  You cannot change the configuration of a RAID 10, RAID 50, or RAID 60 virtual drive. You cannot change a RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5, or RAID 6 configuration if two or more virtual drives are defined on a single drive group. (The Logical tab shows which drive groups and drives are used by each virtual drive.)
