[CentOS] Does anyone know if I can reconfigure a PERC H700 without rebooting?
Hi all,
I have a server which is really difficult to restart because
of usage requirements
and the fact that it's in a co-lo rack so miles away. I've added a
couple of drives which
I'd like to bring up and add to LVM but the config I know is in the
PERC BIOS and
requires a reboot.
Can the config be changed in the openmanage suite and if so can someone point me
in the right direction?
thanks

How did you add the spare drives in the first place? Need a reboot that time? ?? iPhone?? ?? -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: <http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos/attachments/20110822/511b29f0/attachment-0002.html>

I doubt it is possible without a reboot, but you it should be asked to Linux-PowerEdge mailing list... Alain
