Swaping Drive Letters
Good day Experts;
I am in a process of a SQL Server 2005 SAN Migration ( SAN Storage (EMC CX500’s Fiber Channel) to our new SAN Storage Dell EqualLogic ISCSI SAN) ) on a Microsoft Windows Server 2003 R2 Enteprise x64 Edition (Service Pack 2) standalone server.
These are the drives I am working with:
Test Data (T) – SSMSQLWHS/TEST - current drives on old SAN
Test Logs (U) – SSMSQLWHS/TEST - current drives on old SAN
New T Drive Test Data (F) - SSMSQLWHS/TEST - new drive provided by server admin (on new SAN)
New U Drive Test Logs (G) - SSMSQLWHS/TEST - new drive provided by server admin (on new SAN)
My server admin is of sick so I am at the point in my procedure to bring the New drives (F) and (G) online
So using disk management I need to bring (F) and (G) drives to be my current drives but (T) and (U) can’t be deleted just in case I have to revert back.
Can you please provide step by step instructions on how to achive this.....???
Pretty green on the operating side of things...........
