Split Mirror
Does my controller support this feature? See Supported Features.
Use the Split Mirror task to separate mirrored data originally congured as a RAID 1, RAID 1-concatenated, or RAID 10 virtual disk. Splitting
a RAID 1 or RAID 1-concatenated mirror creates two concatenated non-redundant virtual disks. Splitting a RAID 10 mirror creates two RAID
0 (striped) non-redundant virtual disks. Data is not lost during this operation.
NOTE
: On Linux operating systems, a Split Mirror cannot be performed on a mounted virtual disk. For this reason, a Split Mirror
cannot be performed on the boot drive.
