Splitting the RAID drives

Ensure that your system is in full working order and the RAID hardware configuration is set up
properly as described on
112.
Important:
You must verify that the RAID channel 1 is connected to the first three hard drives on the
left as facing the machine, and channel 2 is connected to the last three to the right. Either
open the lid and follow the cables or take one hard drive offline and observe which drive is
marked FAIL by the system. If the drive matches the graphic location on the Windows
MegaRAID console, proceed with the next step.
Important:
The drives must not be un-seated, re-seated or disconnected during the RAID splitting
process unless you are planning to replace the drives.

Full data backup

Important:
As an extra precaution, it is recommended that a full system backup be performed PRIOR
to performing a RAID-split. For more information on system backups refer to the CallPilot
Manager online help.

Verifying consistency on the drives

This optional consistency check on the RAID system's logical drive ensures that the data on
the drives is identical. If any errors are found, they are corrected automatically. Perform a
consistency check before you split the RAID system pack. A good data backup on an offline
drive will be important if you need to revert to the CallPilot system from an unsuccessful
upgrade or update. The consistency check can take up to 2 hours to complete.
