Version 6.8.1 P10
appliance R720
Does anyone know how to add additional hard drive in to a Dell PowerEdge R720?
I found below steps in Dell Community site, however I am wondering if anyone has done this before.
- Add the physical disks to empty slots on the server. (does RSA appliance R720 have empty slots?)
- Access the iDRAC interface (or maybe the Ctrl+R utility when booting) and add the extra disks into the array.
- "Reconfigure" the array. After this step, At this point the drive will now have the extra space.
- In the OS, expand the partition to use the extra unallocated/free space.
Has anyone done this before with our appliance with OS Redhat 5u11? The only way this can be done is via OpenManage Server Administrator but I can't find the driver for redhat 5x. I can only see if for redhat 6..
