Migrate volume to larger disks in a MSA 2000?

Hi all,

 

we have a MSA 2000 G2. One volume consists of 300GB disks. If we replace failed ones with larger disks, e.g. 600GB the system will only use 300GB of these disks. Is it possible to later use the wasted disk space once all old 300GB disks are replaced by 600GB disks?

 

Best regards,

Reiner.

Hi Reiner,

 

how did you manage the replace of your disks and the additional space on the volume?

 

did you delete and recreate the volume?

 

Best regards

Hi Klaus,

 

we did not yet find a way to resize in place. So I think we will have to delete and recreate the volumes.

 

Best regards,

Reiner.
