Dear Friends,
I have a webserver with two 160GB SATA HDDs.
I have installed Centos5.X on one of the HDD.
I need help in setting up software RAID 1 on second HDD, so that if any HDD fails we can switched to second HDD.
Well, if you've already installed the first hard disk, then i guess u'll have to shrink it for the raid partition. Ideally, it should be done at install time even. It'll only help if the raid partitions are on physically separate disks to protect against a single disk failure.
My office is in Malad West, near DMART, Link road. Can someone help me with this setup for a fee or a crate of beer? :)
Well, my Linux support centre is in goregaon(East Sadly). If you can cart the system across there, with a generous supply soft drinks to be consumed during the setup(i dont drink beer:), I'm sure we can get it set up for you, and probably even show you a few other things you could do. If you need someone to visit you, we will have to work out something commercial though.
Contact me off-list for contact details, if you're interested.
Regards R. K. Rajeev
