Can you move RAID sets around in Xsan?

Hi All,
My apologies if this is a dumb question--I haven't been able to find this anywhere.
Given a SAN, if I shut it down, physically swap two RAID sets, and fire it back up, will Xsan still see everything just fine, or will I have just ruined my SAN?
Yes, there is a reason we would want to do this.
Thanks!

Hi Josh,
There are no dumb questions. I assume you mean you want to (for example) pull all 7 drives from half of 1 XServe-RAID and install them in exactly the same order in another XSR that is connected to the same FC switch? This shouldn't confuse XSAN- all the vital data is stored on the drives and not associated with a particular RAID controller. You cannot, however, remove a RAID set (LUN) from your volume.

  • WHY on the 4s we can't Move and Set pictures

    WHY on the 4s we can't Move and Set pictures

    ok...I think i solved the issue. You have to scaled it first than move the wallpaper. You can not just move it.
    This is what I did.
    First I turn the phone upside down. Tried moving the wallpaper that way and nothing happned.
    Next I turn it right side up again and zoomed in and out.
    Then I was able to move the wallpaper.
    You don't have to turn the phone upside down to move it. You just need to zoom in than out (go in really close. than see it full view), than move the wallpaper.
    If you let the phone go on standby (black screen) while you move the wallpaper you will have to repeat the steps (zoom in and out, than move) again.

    Regarding receiving texts as emails:  Can you apply this setting to one individual? I want to continue to receive texts from everyone else except one person!

    Don't want to block the person, just have all his texts going directly to my email so that I can maintain a continuous record of his text contacts (rather than remain in text form).
    It appears that I must select an option that makes ALL texts go to email, which I'd prefer not doing.

  • Can  you move your notes from one iphone to another and how?

    Can you move your notes from one iphone to another and how?

    You can do this a couple ways.  If you are using MobileMe, notes is one of the options for synchronization and that would be automatic.  Another way is to backup your iphone to iTunes, this backs up essentially all the information on your phone (except for music) and if you restore the other iphone to the image of the original your notes will be transfered.

  • How can you move the objects from one server to another?

    how can you move the objects from one server to another?

    Hi,
    Collecting objects for Transporting
    1. rsa1->transport connection
    2. left panel choose 'object type', middle panel choose 'infocube' and 'select objects'
    3. then choose your infocube and 'transfer'
    4. will go to right panel, choose collection mode 'manual' and grouping only 'necessary objects'
    5. after objects collection finished, create request
    6. If they are $TMP, then change the package.
    7. When you click the Save on the change package, it will prompt for transport. Here you can provide an existing open transport request number, or if you like here itself you can create a new one.
    8. You can check the request in SE09 to confirm.
    Releasing Transport Request  
    Lets say you are transporting from BWD to BWQ
    Step 1: In BWD go to TCode SE10
    Step 2: Find the request and release it (Truck Icon or option can be found by right click on request #)
    Note: First release the child request and then the parent request
    Steps below are to import transport (generally done by basis )
    Step 1: In BWQ go to Tcode STMS
    Step 2: Click on Import queue button
    Step 3: Double Click on the line which says BWQ (or the system into which transport has to be imported)
    Step 4: Click on refresh button
    Step 5: High light the trasnport request and import it (using the truck icon)

  • Can you move files back and forth between an iPad and a PC using iTunes?

    If I read this article correctly, http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4094 I should be able to connect my iPad to my PC, fire up iTunes and then on the Apps tab in iTunes I should be able to click on an app, Pages for example and then just drag files onto the Pages Documents column from a Windows Explorer window.
    This is great.  I was hoping to use DropBox but it is such a hassle I don't know why people are so thrilled with DropBox on iPad.  If I can just move files back and forth using iTunes that should be fairly easy.  I wish there was a way to just upload my files to iCloud from my PC but the iCloud control panel app for Windows only seems to connect Outlook, Photostream and Bookmarks. I want to be able to just carry my iPad and not have to deal with a computer. 
    I thought that they said that you didn't need to have a computer to have an iPad.  I guess if you have a computer and then GET an iPad its a different story, unless you have a Mac of course.
    Anyway my question is: can you move files back and forth between a PC and an iPad using just iTunes?

    I still need to do some trial and error testing with DropBox and my iPad.  But can I link my iPad to my DropBox account so that I can always see the files on DropBox when I open Pages on my iPad?  I just want one place to store my documents, and iCloud doesn't seem to be up to the task when it comes to opening a fil;e, editing it and then saving it back to iCloud.  I just want a networked storage location that works like a networked drive on my LAN.
    I realize that hollywood and the music industry are up in arms about file sharing on the Cloud which is why so many things are made more difficult than they need to be. 

  • Can you move a video taken on the iPad from the camera roll to 'Videos' without syncing through iPhoto?

    Pretty simple question that I can not figure out the answer to. Can you move a video taken on the iPad from the camera roll to 'videos' on the go?

    I can do it on my iPhone and, according to the iPad manual (p. 58), you can do it on an iPad.
    Try a reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

  • Can't unmount raid set

    After a RAID 1 setup on mac mini Lion Server, I decided I need to change partition table.
    Trying to delete the RAID set in recovery mode (booted from USB boot disk) the delete failed, the disks are listed as being "online".
    Booted into disk target mode and accessing the mini disks via thunderbolt from MBP, I tried running diskutility - again without success.
    using comand line diskutil gives me the following error:
    diskutil appleRAID delete /dev/disk3
    Started RAID operation on disk3
    Unmounting volume for RAID set A8306D65-4E36-4C4B-AFFA-7B232AF9D005
    Can't unmount RAID set A8306D65-4E36-4C4B-AFFA-7B232AF9D005 to delete it
    Error: -69886: Invalid request
    there must be a way to re build a RAID set from scratch, I am puzzled.

    Hi BDAqua,
    after I posted I did some more research and figured that i had to remove the drives with the "diskutil appleRAID remove" command.
    after that everything worked as expected.

  • Can you move photos from iphoto to a cd-r disc

    Can you move photos from iphoto onto a blank CD-R disc? If so, how?

    Take the photos you want to burn from iPhoto and put them in a folder on your desktop. Then, insert a blank CD and drag the photos onto the CD icon. Wait for them to finish uploading onto the disk and eject it. Insert it again just to see if this works; double click on the CD icon and ypu should see the same folder, with all of your photos in it. Hope this helps.

  • When I sync my photos to iPhoto from my iPhone 4S it like saves about 200 on my phone. I really don't like that because they're like really old and stay the same... Can you take that setting off? Or just make it you most recent pictures instead?

    When I sync my photos to iPhoto from my iPhone 4S it like saves about 200 on my phone. I really don't like that because they're like really old and stay the same... Can you take that setting off? Or just make it you most recent pictures instead? It's really annoying because they're like year old pics

    it had to do with Maverick/Aperture not supporting the same date formats as before in Smart Albums when I upgraded.
    Smart albums based on dates have always been problematic, if you use smart settings that require a date string to be entered. How the date string will be interpreted, will depend on your settings in the System Preferences > Language&Text > Advanced > Dates formats and the "Region".
    It is much safer to use "Calendar" rules in Aperture instead of "Date" rules with date-strings. Calendar rules will remain valid, if the region settings are changed in the System preferences.

  • HT4890 Can you move photos from camera roll to photo stream?

    Can you move photos from camera roll to photo stream?

    Photos taken on your device (which are saved to the camera roll) after enabling photo stream are automatically added (when connected to wifi, the camera app is closed, and you have at least 20% battery power remaining).  If you want to add earlier photos you'll have to either email them one by one to yourself, then open the email and save them back to your camera roll (which will now upload to photo stream because it is considered a new photo), or you can send them all at once using an app like PhotoSync.  With this app you can transfer them wirelessly to your computer, then delete them from your camera roll on your phone, the send them back to the camera roll from your computer (which will again cause them to be seen as new photos).  (iTunes will not transfer photos to your camera roll so you can't just import them and sync them back.)

  • Can you move Magazine Aps into Newsstand

    Can you move Magazine Aps into Newsstand?

    >What are folders. Seems as tho, if you have collections etc., you have what folders are: namely an organizational hierarchy.
    Yes they both are organisational hierarchies - one on your disc drive (folders) , the other in your Lightroom catalogue (collection).
    But the big difference is that your folder structure is fairly well fixed (changeable of course by moving, renaming and copying etc) whereas a Collection is in no way dependent on your file structure on disc; it is totally of your choosing as to what it contains. You can modify it without regard to your folder structure on disc.
    As an example, you can create a quick collection to use in the Print module, and after you have printed you can delete the quick collection and it in now way affects your files on disc.
    Another example, you can search for all photos with a particular piece of metadata, select them and make a collection. That collection will bear no relationship to your disc structure; you can modify the collection and it does nothing to your folder structure on disc.
    Yes, folders and collections are organisational stuctures, one is physical the other, for want of a term, is virtual.
    I could go on, but I hope that the above is reasonably clear...
