Hello all,
I have a machine with 2 SATA 250GB disks which I want to upgrade to 1TB SATAs
This is the partition structure on both disks:
Disk /dev/sda: 250.0 GB, 250059350016 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 30401 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sda1 * 1 25 200781 fd Linux raid autodetect /dev/sda2 26 1971 15631245 fd Linux raid autodetect /dev/sda3 1972 30401 228363975 fd Linux raid autodetect
there are 3x RAID1 arrays. First is for /boot Second if for swap Third is for LVM (contains / and other filesystems)
What is the easiest way to get this upgraded?
I thought that I could maybe dd all the LVM volumes and /boot into files, setup the new RAID1 arrays on the 1TB disks, and dd everything back? or is there an easier way?
Regards, Coert
