hi!

Windows 2003 server is installed on a server and another 5 disks of 2
TB are spanned into one volume and can be seen as 10TB of data Disk.
Some how my OS disk crashed. So i installed OS in a new HDD. Now i can
see all the other 5 HDDs as individual disks. How can i see all 5 HDDs
as one (spanned) volume without loosing data?
Can Anybody help me out?

Thanks in advance
 
Re: restore data in spanned volume

In Computer Management, Disk Management, what status is shown for the disks
that were a spanned volume?

If the status is "Foreign", you should be able to get the spanned volume
status back by right clicking one and selecting "Import Foreign Disks".

There's quite a bit of information about dynamic disks (including spanned
volumes) in the Help for Computer Management. For example, see
Help, Help Topics, Disk Management, How To..., Manage Disks, Move disks to
another computer.

Since you installed the OS new, the concept is similar to importing the
disks from another computer.

It is perfectly useless to know the right answer to the wrong question.
