Feature Request - Separation of different Volumes on VSA

[alexsene59]

Hello,

I have already opened a ticket on this subject (#07944531).
Since I have not received a response, I am taking the liberty of writing here. We purchased last year a dedicated server for Veeam, Dell PowerEdge R760xd2.
We chose this server with 3 types of drives inside:
- NVME drives for the OS
- HDD drives: backup
- SSD drives: Sure Backup

During the installation, everything went well, but we are encountering a blockage. The NVME part for the OS is being used properly; however, the HDD and SSD drives are seen as a single array. This is a problem because we cannot put the server into production. Support told me that when the functionality becomes available, it will be necessary to go through a complete reinstallation of the server. Do you have any new information regarding this point?

Regards,
Alexandre

Hi Alexandre,

We plan to provide more control over how additional disks can be used in one of our upcoming releases this year.

Most likely, you won’t be able to reconfigure the current disk/filesystem layout without destroying the data on it.
If you want to separate an existing backup volume from other disks, you will likely need to move the backups to temporary storage, reconfigure the disks, and then move the backups back.
We can confirm the available migration options after we have released this feature.

Best,
Fabian
