Re: How to add a disk into a disk group in MSA2050
It's not possible to include drives in existing Virtual Disk Groups. This is as per design limitation in MSA2050 or MSA Virtual Array technology.
If you have requirement to increase Pool space then you have to create new Virtual Disk Group with new drives and add the VDG to the pool.
MSA2050 is Virtual Array and this is not like legacy MSA arrays like P2000 where you can add drives to existing Vdisk to increase Vdisk space.
Hope this helps!
Regards
Subhajit
