Change VV from raid1 to raid5?

Post by Gatorfreak »

Can I change a VV from raid1 to raid5? Can this be done while the VV is exported and in use?

Edit: I have no licenses for D.O. or A.O.

Without DO, you can't change RAID levels. If you edit the CPG, it would only affect new data, not existing data. If the volumes are VMWare volumes, you could create a new volume and use storage vMotion. But that's about it.
