change MD1000 to other server
Hi
We need to change a MD1000 to other server.
Actually is connected to a PE2950 with Windows Server 2003 by PERC5E, the system has 10 disks in raid, then 1 partition with data and other with shadow copies of these data.
We need to connect it to a PE2850 (with Ultra320SCSI, but without PERC).
- My first doubt is if I need to have a PERC card, or if it´s recommendable in any case.
- The second and more important doubt is if I can simply connect the new server to the MD1000 without losing data. I´m not sure if I need to recreate disk, arrays, or partition on the server.
I don´t know what will be exactly detected by the OpenManage and by the server.
Thanks in advance
