Hi Mahesh Gowda ,
If you added 36gb in the existing RAID-5 ,U can able to consuming the space 9 gb only.
better the you go different logical drive and map the Drive. insuch case you can utilized 36gb but it's not covered RAID5.
Thanks and Regards

Re: d l380
Ok, here's is an non supported sollution by HP but it works.
Update the firmware of the disk (important)
Update the firmware of the raid controller.
Replace the disk one by one by a 36GB.
Make sure the disk is completely rebuild before adding an other disk.
At the end of the day you will have 4 disk of 36GB, consuming 9GB each.
COLD reboot the server every time a disk is rebuilt and verrify dat a reboot occurs without post errors. You will possible had to reboot the machine twice.
Now you can assign the free space to a new partition.
Again, this is NOT supported by HP.
Again, it is verry important that al disks running at the same latest firmware.
Alway make sure you have a disaster recovery plan.
Alternativly you can at two new disk in mirror for example and assign it a new array, but that wasn't you question.
