Question HP10.20 Cloning
Good day all.

So, here's the situation. I have (7x) B180L VISUALIZE WORKSTATION's with Transtec 5100 RAID (RAID 5, 9.1 GB HDD's) towers running of UNIX HP10.20. It's time to replace the RAID's with new ones, them being Fibrenetix FX606 5 bay SATA RAID, 5 bay SATA-SCSI desktop RAID including 80Gb drives.

Clearly different capacities, but it would make me extremely happy if I could just clone the one to the other, rather then re-installing 7 machines with all the different applications. Also, these machines are used for archiving historical data, so none of the 7 machine are the same exept for the OS (HP Unix 10.20 and the application).

If possible, could you please guide me in the right direction? With the different sizes, would dd work?

Kind Regards
Tony
