A 256GB memory upgrade kit is available for purchase when adding the first 2U12

Note: Spanning MSDP data across both Veritas 5250 Appliance internal storage

and a storage shelf is not recommended as it may result in degraded performance.

Warning: Failure to migrate MSDP data after you connect a storage shelf may

result in degraded appliance throughput performance.

For more information about migrating MSDP data, see the following document:

Moving the MSDP partition from a base disk to an expansion disk for optimum

performance.
