Appendix A: Drive Roaming and Drive Migration Install Drive Roaming Drive roaming occurs when the hard drives are changed to different ports on the same controller. When the drives are placed on different ports, the controller detects the RAID configuration from the configuration data on the drives. Note: If you move a drive that is currently being rebuilt, the rebuild operation will restart, not resume. To use drive roaming: 1. Turn off the power to the system and all drives, enclosures, and system components. Remove the power cord(s). 2. Follow the instructions that came with your server system to remove the server cover. 3. Move the drives to different positions on the backplane to change the targets. See your server documentation for instructions to install and remove drives. 4. Determine the target requirements. 5. Make sure the drives are inserted properly. 6. Follow the instructions that came with your server system to remove the server cover. 7. Plug in and power on the system. The controller detects the RAID configuration from the configuration data on the drives (COD). 15 Intel® RAID Controller SRCSASRB Hardware User's Guide
