A client has the need to increse the size of an ISCSI volume connected to a physical server. I added a disk group to Pool A, which is where the volume draws from. It appears that the avail space in Pool A has increased, but I don't see the extra space reflected on the physical server that the ISCSI volume is connected to. Questions:
1) Is the extra space now avail to the ISCSI volume even though the ISCSI volume doesn't reflect this?
2) If yes to #1, will the ISCSI drive allow growth beyond its size without issue?
3) Is there a way to get the ISCSI drive to reflect the extra space?
Solved! Go to Solution.

SolutionAfter adding a new disk group to expand the pool, you can proceed to expand the volume using the modify option.
page - 101 : Document - HPE MSA 1050/2050 SMU Reference Guide | HPE Support
1. No. Volume should be expanded on the MSA using modify option.
2. You can then rescan adapters/disk management on the host and increase the volume capacity on the host end.
