I have a friend who has a client that runs WinNT/Exchange 5.5 server.
The client provides very few details (because he does not know squat), except that the server does not boot due to lack of disk space. And the server has RAID5 (client does not know if it is hardware or software RAID5). I have not seen this system yet, it is miles away from me and I am not sure if I want to see it.
I have a feeling that they are using NT software RAID5.
(I also have a feeling that they were not doing any backups and choked on the transaction logs)
I am pretty sure I can boot this machine by sticking an IDE drive into it and installing a second copy of NT on it.
BUT...
I am trying to think logically... it this is a software RAID5... will another copy of NT be able to see the data on the RAID5 that was created by a different installation of NT?
Thanks!
