Reconfigure NAS Volume

This function reconfigures the file system format for the NAS user volume to support volume expansion.
This function is used in a Unified Storage environment.
• The ETERNUS DX60 S3, the ETERNUS DX8700 S3/DX8900 S3, and the ETERNUS DX200F do not support this
function.
• Some NAS user volumes require a reconfiguration of the file system format to be compatible with volume
expansion. For volumes that must be reconfigured, a message appears and volume expansion is not pos-
sible. Volume expansion can be performed for volumes that do not require a reconfiguration and volumes
that have already been reconfigured. Refer to
details.
• Perform the following operations before reconfiguring the NAS user volume.
- Perform a CIFS unmount and an NFS unmount from the client. In addition, if the controller firmware
version is V10L31 or earlier, stop the operation for all file systems because the file lock state is
released. A file system format conversion process takes a maximum of 15 minutes. Wait until the
complete screen is displayed.
- Backup data in the NAS user volume to a different area in advance (if reconfiguration fails, data
cannot be recovered from the original NAS user volume). Data can be recovered from the backed up
data.
• This function converts the file system format of the NAS user volume. Conversion targets are volumes of
which the "Usage Details" are "NAS Data". Refer to "Volume Detail (Basic)" in "ETERNUS Web GUI User's
Guide (Operation)" for details.
• If the following conditions are all satisfied, the maximum NAS user volume capacity can be expanded by
converting the file system format with this function. The version and the block size of the NAS file system
(or the NAS user volume) are displayed in the [Volume Detail] screen. Refer to "Volume Detail (Basic)" in
"ETERNUS Web GUI User's Guide (Operation)" for details.
- NAS file system version is "3"
- The block size of the NAS file system is "8KB" or "32KB"
