Dear DUGURUs,
Due to lack of experience with DU installs and RAID, I've got two questions:
1) I plan to install a 5 RZ29B disk RAID set onto the 3rd channel of a 3 channel PCI RAID Array 200
Controller. They will be A RAID 5 set of advfs file systems which I will add in as a second volume
to an existing RAID/advfs single volume domain.
Can someone tell me what the procedure is to install the 5 disk raid set using SWXCRMGR 1.0
using the floppy? Also, there is a later version out (1.1?) that allows one to run it under the OS.
I currently don't have that version on hand. Can I get it across the net?
2) I assume I simply run the addvol command to add my new RAID5 volume into the existing domain?
After I add it, will the fileset ( I will still only have one.) balance itself between the two volumes which
will be on two separate RAID channels? Would I have to run the balance utility afterwards?
I am installing DU 4.0b with the AdVfs Utilities license.
Thanks,
Wayne
