Compaq ML350 g2 with LC2 raid need Array config tool
Hello,
We have a Compaq ML350 g2 with LC2 raid card. We need to remove the spare drive and create a second RAID from within Windows 2000. The smartstart CD 5, insight manager 5 does not seem to have such a tool. I am looking for something like a Compaq Array configuration utility for the LC2 for Windows. I can only find Smartarray or NT 4 software. Any ideas ? Thankyou in advance -- Michael J.

download and install the support paq for 2000 (v7.10A). This will have a
browser based ACU that you should be able to use with your server to configure the disks. Also, software RAID is a nasty thing to do to your server.. avoid it if possible. - LC "Michael Jenkin" wrote in message ... Hello, We have a Compaq ML350 g2 with LC2 raid card.

The only way to configure a LC2 is to reboot and hit F8 when the LC2 banner appears. This will run the ROM based configuration utility. |
