  • 1.  Am I able to make an expansion to an existing mdisk?

    Posted Tue June 13, 2017 12:30 PM

    I'm wondering if I'm able to add to mdisk like I could in DS storage? I can't find any instructions on how to do so.

    No, You can't do that. But you can remove mdisk from pool and add a New mdisk, as long as you have enough total free capacity in remaining mdisks in pool.

    Thank you Espen. I know I was able to do it in my older DS storage, so wasn't sure if I could still or if I was missing something.
