Question : Problem: Configure Raid 10 using separate array controllers.

Our software vendor requires a Raid 10 disk array configuration for there Progress Database Servers.
My HP DL580 server has 2 HP P400 Smart Array controllers, 1 embedded and one card.  I have 8 72 gig dirves on each controller. In attempting to set up the Raid 10 using the Smart Array software the only option sets the Raid 10 on a single contoller with no options for using the 2 array controllers to configure the Raid 10.  
Has anyone configured Raid 1,0 using 2 array controller cards and using the array cotrollers  hardware configuration?

Answer : Problem: Configure Raid 10 using separate array controllers.

You can't use Smart Array controllers in tandem like this, you'll have to mirror in software if you want to have 2 seperate controllers. Even dual-domain using MSA60 or 70 with 2 interfaces currently needs both interfaces to be connected to a single RAID controller.
