Mirrored disk config

by azizhakim . Updated 24 years, 1 month ago

Good morning peers.A disk mirored system question.
I have 3 scsi disks on one controller.Have an ide drive as well that houses The os(BOOT PARTITION).The computer boots from scsi id 0.I have noticed in event viewer the disk has bad blocks,ran checkdisk utility,On reboots warning message to backup as imminent disk failure.Drive 3 on scsi controller has been deleted and I have mirrored the two volumes(DISK 1 AND DISK 3) On the scsi controller.Now I need the Pc to boot from
the mirrored volume.The procedure is where the dilemma is,ALSO EVEN THOUGH THE PC BOOTS FROM SCSI
AND BIOS IS DISABLED THE BOOT.INI STATES THE MULTI ENTRY NOT SCSI ENTRY.I WON’T replace the mirrored volume and regenerate since it is HOME project.My basic need is to bootto mirrored drive and remove the failing drive altogether since it is my AD DC,By the way it is win2000 and I have just installed another DC for reduntancy due to imminent failure.Any help will be welcome
