Allocate capacity is much more then used capacity

[erichuang0616]

Hi,

My customer's 3PAR storage has a strange problem while they enable AO and define the CPG growth limit. The 3PAR inform OS is 3.1.2 MU2, and we find the 'EDA2_NLSAS_AO2_R6' CPG has allocated capacity 6,618GB, but the used capacity is just only 4,968.250GB with growth limit 6650GB. I want to know why the allocated size is much than used space and I cannot request more free space on that CPG? Please refer detail about the attachment.

Best Regards,

Eric Huang
