That was it! &nbsp;Thank you so much.<br />

With used units you can never be sure what has been done before, so putting them back to standard can be a pain.<br />

Hi All,<br />
<br />
I just bought 3 used HP DL380 G3's, all have 6 x 36.4gb 10k hot swap scsi drives.<br />
<br />
2 of the DL 380's are configured that all the drives are on Port 2 of the raid controller, but the 3rd DL 380 is configured so 4 drives are on port 2, and 2 drives on port 1.<br />
<br />
The question is how can I put all the drives on port 2 as this appears to be the standard configuration.<br />
<br />
RIght now everything is blank so data is not an issue.<br />
<br />
Many Thanks,<br />
<br />
Neil

Configuring the DL380 G3 Smart Array 5i controller

Servers are computing devices that are similar to desktop computers in that they have the same basic components, but are significantly different in size, configuration and purpose. Servers are usually accessed over a network, and many run unattended, without a computer monitor, input device, audio hardware or USB interfaces. Many servers do not have a graphical user interface (GUI), and are configured and managed remotely. Servers typically include hardware redundancy such as dual power supplies, RAID disk systems, and ECC memory, along with extensive pre-boot memory testing and verification. Critical components might be hot swappable, and to guard against overheating, servers might have more powerful fans or use water cooling.
