3Par 8200 / Adding 2 Additional drives, 1 Drive not utilizing cappacity

Hi,

We have 3PAR 8200 system with 8x480 GB SSD drives (DOPE0480S5xnNMRI).

Recently we added 2 additional drives 480 GB (AREA0480S5xnNTRI). All drives with one spare and product number. 

One was dead on arrival and we change it to (DOPE0480S5xnNMRI).

Now We can see that this disk is not utilizing full capacity (not writing data to it).

PD    0 Devtype SSD chunks free    5 total  446 utilization 98%

PD    1 Devtype SSD chunks free    0 total  446 utilization 100%

PD    2 Devtype SSD chunks free    6 total  446 utilization 98%

PD    3 Devtype SSD chunks free    0 total  446 utilization 100%

PD    4 Devtype SSD chunks free    9 total  446 utilization 97%

PD    5 Devtype SSD chunks free    0 total  446 utilization 100%

PD    6 Devtype SSD chunks free    4 total  446 utilization 99%

PD    7 Devtype SSD chunks free    1 total  446 utilization 99%

PD    8 Devtype SSD chunks free    8 total  446 utilization 98% - New One

PD   10 Devtype SSD chunks free  402 total  446 utilization 9% - New One

 

    Number of full PDs of this devtype & node owner:             9

    Number of underallocated PDs of this devtype & node owner:   1

    IDs of full PDs:                                             0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

    IDs of underallocated PDs:                                   10

Tynesys was made but nothung changes.

What can be done?
