Appendix
You should note the following when expanding disk capacity using the Expand
Capacity function.
IMPORTANT:
You can only use the Expand Capacity function if there is no I/O activity
on the storage system at the time when you expand a group or a LUN.
The Expand Capacity function can only be run on one controller. On
dual controller systems the partner controller will be deactivated.
The ports connected to the partner controller will NOT BE AVAILABLE
while the Expand Capacity function is running. No RAID protection is
given while the Expand Capacity function is performed.
You can only expand a logical unit (LUN) when this is the only unit in
the array.
Any unused storage areas will be assigned automatically when the
Expand Capacity function has been terminated.
When a new disk is inserted in the FibreCAT S80 it will be flagged as
UNKNOWN on the Disk > Enclosures file card.
In order to add disk capacity to an existing array, you must first define the drive
as a spare drive (see the Spare Drives section).
