    Hello everyone!

    I'm trying to master an IBM x3100 M5 with ServeRaid M-100 configured with 2 HDD in RAID 1 to deploy on other Server (not necessary IBM)

    I use to prepare with SySPrep then I use Clonezilla to take the image of a HDD.

    But on that IBM, Clonezilla purpose 3 HDD (instead of 2):
    Gparted information are:
    Partition ; File System; Label ;Size ; Flags
    /dev/md126p1 ; Fat32 ; ; 200MB ; boot, esp
    /dev/md126p2; Unknown ; Microsft reserved partition; 128MB ; msftres
    /dev/md126p3; NTFS ; ;93000MB ; msftdata
    /dev/sda1 ; Fat32 ; ; 200MB ; boot, esp
    /dev/sda2 ; Unknown ; ; 128MB ; msftres
    /dev/sda3 ; NTFS ; ; 93000MB ; msftdata
    /dev/sdb1 ; Fat32 ; ; 200MB ; boot, esp
    /dev/sdb2 ; Unknown ; ; 128MB ; msftres
    /dev/sdb3 ; NTFS ; ; 93000MB ; msftdata

    I suppose that md126p is the RAID1 image created by ServeRaid M-100.
    So I took the md126p image. No problem told by Clonezilla.
    But when I restarted the IBM Server, Windows did not lauch.
    I restart Clonezilla to restor the image. But now Clonezilla pupose 2 HDD, sda and sdb (miss md126p)
    I restored image on Sda and Sdb.
    The IBM won't launch Windows.

    Someone have an idea to make again the RAID 1 array without data destruction to make the IBM server launch with the HDD restored?

    Thanks.
