restore data in spanned volume

[Guest avijit]

hi!

 

Windows 2003 server is installed on a server and another 5 disks of 2

TB are spanned into one volume and can be seen as 10TB of data Disk.

Some how my OS disk crashed. So i installed OS in a new HDD. Now i can

see all the other 5 HDDs as individual disks. How can i see all 5 HDDs

as one (spanned) volume without loosing data?

Can Anybody help me out?

 

Thanks in advance

Re: restore data in spanned volume

 

In Computer Management, Disk Management, what status is shown for the disks

that were a spanned volume?

 

If the status is "Foreign", you should be able to get the spanned volume

status back by right clicking one and selecting "Import Foreign Disks".

 

There's quite a bit of information about dynamic disks (including spanned

volumes) in the Help for Computer Management. For example, see

Help, Help Topics, Disk Management, How To..., Manage Disks, Move disks to

another computer.

 

Since you installed the OS new, the concept is similar to importing the

disks from another computer.

It is perfectly useless to know the right answer to the wrong question.
