I have been tasked with "fixing"  the below - but I'm rusty as hell.

Current specs of the server are
HP 380 G6

intel e5603

6 gb ram

2 x 1tb raid 1 c:/

1 x 1tb hs

1 x 1tb ssh

12 x tb raid 5 (I'm currently trying to repair)

No backups......

 

 

They want me to suggest a better way to set their server up -

 

My suggestions are (for storage)  either Raid 10 – 4 x 4tb or 8x2GB

Raid 6 – 4 x 4tb or 8x2GB

 

Setting up SMTP (I'm not sure if I need ILO for this or not)

Setting up a stand along storage unit to back up every day with 20TB raid 6 (8 x 4tb)

 

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Hi:

 

HP split into two companies a few years ago.

 

HP supports PC's, printers, tablets and calculators.

 

HP Enterprise (HPE) supports servers, switches, routers and tape drives.

 

You may also want to post your question on the HPE community support forum -- Proliant servers section...

Sorry, should I delete this?

I don't recommend that you delete your post.

 

There may be one or two folks on this forum that may have some relevant input to your question, but you will probably have more replies on the server forum.
