https://community.hpe.com/t5/storeeasy-storage/nas-b2000-pool-size-problem-help/m-p/565626#M828 We have a NAS B2000. It ran out of space quite a while back, and as a resolution we dropped two QLogic cards in the system, and created a LUN on our EVA 5000 of double the size. All was fine and good, but then that filled up.<BR /> <BR /> I increased the lun size from 200Gb to 400Gb.<BR /> The NAS B2000 did not see all 400Gb.<BR /> It is just one pool, and one drive letter on that pool.<BR /> When right clicking the Pool, the General tab stated 200Gb, but the Storage Units tab showed 400. Odd...<BR /> Ran out of space again. I increased to 475Gb on the SAN... ran the wizard to increase space on the F: drive, and it only let me add 6gb.<BR /> Now on the pool it says 255871MB under the general tab. 0Mb Free Space.. so the pool is empty.<BR /> Storage units though, shows as 486398Mb.<BR /> <BR /> Why is there this discrepancy? How can I resolve this to where all of my storage is seen by the pool?<BR /> Or is something else messed up? Need help urgently.. only 5gb free now on the logical disk, and I don't want to keep burning 75gb of SAN disk to add 5gb of local disk<BR /> Mon, 05 Sep 2005 08:52:42 GMT CA1116955 2005-09-05T08:52:42Z https://community.hpe.com/t5/storeeasy-storage/nas-b2000-pool-size-problem-help/m-p/565626#M828 We have a NAS B2000.

I am a little confused.<BR /><BR />It sounds like you had a lun presented to the EVA of 200GB and then extended that lun to 400GB but never extended the drive within the operating system. <BR />You could follow the microsoft article listed below: <A href="http://support.microsoft.com/kb/325590" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://support.microsoft.com/kb/325590</A><BR />Also, you could use the hp GUI based program called Storage Volume Growth.<BR /><A href="http://h18006.www1.hp.com/products/storage/software/svg/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://h18006.www1.hp.com/products/storage/software/svg/</A><BR /><BR />Nicholas<BR /><BR /> Tue, 20 Sep 2005 14:28:48 GMT https://community.hpe.com/t5/storeeasy-storage/nas-b2000-pool-size-problem-help/m-p/565627#M829 CA1043516 2005-09-20T14:28:48Z
