3par increase virtual volume size without downtime (Hyper-V)

[KentYong]

Good day All,

May I know after I install new drive to 3PAR storage system, is there any downtime for Hyper-V VM if I increase 3PAR virtual volume size? 

Which thing need to take note for 3PAR virtual volumn expansion?

Many thanks.

Hi, thanks for reply.

I only have one 3PAR, which currently have 12 slot hard drive. I just want to add another 12 slot new hard drive.

So I assume that after added 12 slot hard drive, what I need to do is just edit (increase) the Virtual Volumn size for CSV in 3par only right? Don't have any downtime for current Hyper-V VM right?

Thanks.

Hello @KentYong,

3PAR Volume expansion is an online activity. It doesn't have any downtime.
