Raid 5 not rebuilt automatically on Dell PE 840
Hi
I have 2 dell poweredge 840s, old machines, and they have a hardware raid 5 with 3 disks.
it doesnt have hot plug so i had to shut the systems down to replace a bad disks and when i have booted up it appears to go straight into windows.
it all appears to work ok, and then i checked the disk config in openmange which says i currently have 3 disks online, but only 2 disks that are in the raid 5, my new disk is not in the raid 5 at all. it is a larger disk but that shouldnt matter?
How do i fix this issue? its never happened before, and then it happens twice on the same type of machines
OS is Windows 2003 R2
