[rescue] Help in reconfiguring Flexline680 (SUN/STK) array

[Steve Costaras]

Why would it be messy when it's the only option?   I would like to 
re-configure but I have not found any way to do that.   If someone could 
point me to the software and config manual I would gladly redo it. 
(though I would probably set it up to be a bunch of mirrors and then 
stripe those opposed to mirroring a stripe as that has higher 
availability.   Considering the age of the array that's the biggest concern.
