Re: Newbie Question: Hard Disk Capacity

Thanks Akoplylov. Well that was really helpful. Even I thought that the logical volume had to be recreated. As, it has been long time since I worked on building RAIDs and playing with hardware. Nowadays everything is SILOed and we just do our work. So. anyway, I am going to rebuild it but I was searching for DL 360 G5 I tried F8 F9 and F11 options but nowhere I could find where I could go ahead and recreate the Logical Volume.

 

This came along installed with Windows Server 2008 Std so not sure what Logical Volume they created and while I was installing VMWare I found that I saw only 2 x 73 GB disks available out of 4. I remember usually you can press the Insert key after highlighting the drives and you can then choose the different types of RAID environment you can create. But I could not do that and in VMWare there was no options where I can go and select drives and it had only few options like DETAILS and 2 more options if I remember correctly and the OK to continue option. There was no option where you could select multiple drives so I pressed continue and it proceeded.

 

I tried to see that I could download a SMARTSTART CD for 360 G5 and rebuild it but I could not find one as it was all old. Looks like the G5 versions came in 2010. Atleast if I find the SMART START CD that I could use to build the system it would be great. But thanks for your response. It has been almost several years I touched HW.
