Migrating the RAID Level Without Adding or Removing Drives

Perform the following steps to migrate the RAID level of an array.

1.	Navigate to the Controller dashboard and click an array name (for example, Array_1).

In the right pane, under Actions, the Modify Array option appears.

2.	Click Modify Array.

The Modify Array window appears.

3.	Select the RAID level to which you want to migrate the array from the RAID Level Setting drop-down menu.

It is recommended you backup the data before you change the RAID levels.

NOTE  Checking the “It is advisable to back up data before you proceed. Are you sure you want to continue?” checkbox does NOT launch a backup. You must follow the prescribed process to perform an array backup.

4.	Click Next.

The Modify Array window appears and provides you an option to add, remove, or directly change the RAID level. Depending on the source and the target RAID levels, you can also add drives directly without having to choose an option.
