Hi,
I have an Exchange server 2003 active/passive cluster built on Windows
Server 2003 EE. Also, I have an HP EVA 3000 storage. Recently I added disks
to increase the available space of the disks the Exchange databases are
stored on. I know I can extend the the physical disk through the EVA and then
I can use the diskpart utility to extend the volume in the Windows.
However, somebody told me when the cluster was created they had created the
partitions using the command "create partition primary align=xxxx" in order
to align the partition with the underlying storage to improve performance, as
described in KB929491 article. Does anybody knows if I cause a problem or
performance degradation when I will extend the disk and the partition? Will
the partition misaligned?
Thank you in advance
Dimitris
