Hi,

This is a duplicate of the thread I just posted in 2003 server but I guess that Linux guys would not look in there. I have used partition software when installing Linux on my machines but I have not used it on a 2003 server X64.

Apologies for double post.

I have a Dell server it has two SCSI disks running in a RAID 1.

It is currently partitioned with 15GB as a system (C:) drive and the remainder as a D drive, both NTFS partitions. It is running Windows Server 2003 Standard X64.

I need to resize these partitions, non-destructively.

I used the ****** partition software - fine with D drive but not with C drive: I have found out it does not cater for X64.

Does gparted work OK with RAID 1 controller?

Any additional tips such as deactivate RAID, repartition one drive, and turn it back on - appreciated.

Any body successfully done this?
