storageworks x1600 - thinprovisioning and ASM problem - pls help

razi_1 — Thu, 10 Feb 2011 14:41:21 GMT

hi,

just bought this one.

1. is thin provisioning possible with this server? i cant find the function in ASM software.

if not possible,what if i extend my virtual array when the space almost finish,will it take long time and cause system down? im afraid without thin provisioning,later i might need to increase the allocation of space and im not sure whether at that time resizing will cause downtime or not.

2. i have been getting discovery failed! messsage while using ASM and upto now unable to create any virtual array still. how to solve this?

thanks

thanks

I thought you meant Account Support Manager (Mission Critical Services). Too many TLAs!
