Subject: Grow a RAID-10
Date: Wed, 02 Jul 2008 14:56:04 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <486BF974.70508@amfes.com> (raw)
I currently have a RAID10 across (4) SATA drives. It looks like I'm
going to need to grow in the near future. Any tips for a procedure for
this? My current plan:
1. Add a PCI SATA controller (MB had 4 SATA + 4 RAID SATA, it's a Tyan
MB with a NFORCE chipset, I'm not sure if I want/can use the RAID SATA
ports as plain SATA connections).
2. Add 2 more drives - not necessarily the same size as the existing
(they were all 4 the same)
3. Execute "mdadm --grow /dev/md0"
