Mounting a Dynamic Volume in Vista Ultimate

I'm having an issue mounting a dynamic volume (created with MS Windows Server
2003) on a new Vista Ultimate installation.

I've found reference to similar issues
(http://groups.google.com/group/micro...n+the+pack%22#)
and the 2 or 3 I've seen were caused because the user was using a home
version of Vista.

I have a 2.5TB RAID 5, 6-drive array that cannot be mounted using diskpart
or diskmgmt.msc. When I right click on "Disk 1 / Dynamic / / Offline" in
diskmgmt.msc, the only options available to me are: (1) Convert to basic disk
(which erases all data); (2) Reativate Disk (which throws an error); (3)
Properties (which works); or (4) Help (which is useless, as always).

I'd like to keep this a dynamic disk. How can I mount this? Thanks!
