1) the only way to use this space would be BACKUP / DISMOUNT / INIT / RESTORE; and
2) the EVA can't just take that 25 gigs back without dire consequences to the data disk.
I don't need the space on VMS, and we aren't really short on any of the other servers feeding from the EVA either. And I really don't feel like blowing away half a day to rebuild that data disk to incorporate the space. So for the moment we're just cruising along with ANAL/DISK telling me I've got unmapped space on the disk, and SHOW DEV/FU having different values for "Total blocks" and "Logical Volume Size".
My questions: Are my assumptions correct? Is there any way that leaving things the way they are will cause me any pain in the future?
Solved! Go to Solution.

SolutionThen SET VOLUME/SIZE triggers the expansion.
You don't have to rebuild the disk to incorporate the space.

Re: Dynamic Disk Expansion
2) correct. if there is still enough space, you could request a new virtual disk with the original size, so that you can copy without going through a tape.
