P400 add disk capacity
I did this on our DL360 G5 using RAID 5 on our P400 but I do not see any place to add a volume or increase the capacity in any way.
I replaced the 72Gb drives with 146Gb one at a time. All of the VM's on it seem fine, but I see no way to increase the RAID colume size.
I assume I have to remove the old volume and add another?

Re: P400 add disk capacity
Are you doing this in the ACU? You should see the increase of the disk space already.

Re: P400 add disk capacity
The existing volume was created using all of the space on the 4 X 72Gb drives that were originally in the machine.

Re: P400 add disk capacity
as a last resort if you can't get it to pick up the extra space you could back it up (if you have'nt already) delete the array and recreate it then restore data.

Re: P400 add disk capacity
taken from the configuring arrays on hp smart array reference guide :-
NOTE: The Expand Array task is listed only if there is an unassigned physical drive on the
controller.

Re: P400 add disk capacity
I guess I will have to create a new volume, which is a pain since I have production VM's on there.
And what is the point of "dynamic expansion" if you have to have an unused physical disk in the box? Then I would just use it...
