Can you expand on the description of your environment?  Do you have
two servers (one with the single partition and another with multiple
partitions)?  Or do you have a single system with two disks (one with
the single partition and another with multiple partitions)?  Or do you
have a single system with a single disk with the old single partition
and a bunch of new partitions?  Or something else?

And, given that this is a server, you may want to consider using
logical volumes instead of partitions.
