Expanding Capacity

Redundancy Manager does not support the hot-add of logical drives. To add
drives, you must:
1. Physically add the drives to the RA4000/4100.
2. Reboot Windows NT on the server to see the new drives.
3. Run the Array Configuration Utility to configure the drives.
NOTE: You cannot increase the capacity of an existing Windows NT drive volume, but you
can assign a new drive letter to the extra capacity furnished by the added drives.
4. Run Windows NT Disk Administrator to assign a drive letter to the
newly created, unused capacity of your RAID volume.
5. While still running Disk Administrator, format the drives using
Microsoft NTFS.
6. Run Redundancy Manager.
