Dell PowerVault220 & PowerEdge2900

We are facing last few months power vault box misbehaving !

As per tech support from dell saying that you will have to take backup of your drive & re-create RAID Configuration !

Also, alternate option for taking backup & I want to know how to re-configure RAID for our dell powervault220

Receiving reply soon,

    Depends on which RAID adapter you have the PowerVault connected to ...

    For example, if using the latest PERCs, here's the info for doing a RLM :

    You can change RAID levels and add capacity, we call it RAID Level Migration - see page 34 or the manual. - http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/storage/RAID/PERC6/en/PDF/en_ug.pdf

    You can do it in the controller BIOS, or use the OpenManage Storage Administrator piece of the OMSA software if you already have it installed - See this section of that user guide - http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/software/svradmin/6.2/en/OMSS/vdmgmt.htm#wp1425859
