MSA 2060 Unable to Create new Disk Group

geli7676 — Mon, 18 Sep 2023 23:49:49 GMT

I have a MSA2060 configured with 4x 1TB 15K drives in a single Raid6 disk group in Pool A.
I have added an external LFF enclosure and connected it to Controller A with 4x 12tB MDL drives. I would like to create a new disk group of these new MDL drives in Raid 6 and add it to the same Pool.

I can get as far as Creating disk group dgA02 but it times out and logs me out automatically from the web gui interface.

Any ideas how I can get past this and create the disk group?

EDIT: I have managed to get it working via the CLI. The GUI will still hang if you want to check via GUI so leave it to finish initializing into the new pool for a few hours for a group of this size.

Thanks!
