Figure 3-64 WebBIOS virtual disk Properties migration options panel
The following list explains the properties on this panel:
To set the RAID-level migration:
a. Select either Migration only to change the RAID level, or Migration with
addition to expand the virtual drive with further available disk space.
b. Choose the RAID level you want to migrate.
c. Click Go.
As the amount of data and the number of disk drives in your system
increases, you can use RAID-level migration to change a virtual disk from one
RAID level to another. You do not have to power down or reboot the system.
When you migrate a virtual disk, you can keep the same number of drives, or
you can add drives. You can use the WebBIOS CU to migrate the RAID level
of an existing virtual disk.
Important: It is strongly recommended that you have a valid backup of any
data you want to keep; there is no reversible way to recover data after a
failing migration. The following message reminds you:
Migration is not a reversible operation. Do you want to proceed?
<YES> / <NO>
