Adding Capacity to a Volume
You can increase the size of a volume, up to the space available in its pool.
To add capacity to a volume:
1 In the Enterprise View, select the iSCSI Storage Host you want.
2 In the Volumes View, right-click the volume you want, then select Extend volume.
For help selecting the right volume, use the expansion arrows to display more
volume information.
The Extend Volume window opens.
3 By default, the Extend By field is set to the space available in the pool. Adjust the
number to suit your requirements, then click
OK.
Note You must extend the size of a volume in multiples of 10 MB.
You can begin using the volume for storage immediately; you don’t have to wait
for the job to complete. The volume appears in the Volumes view with its new
size.
Reassigning a Volume to Another iSCSI Storage Host
You can reassign a volume to a different iSCSI Storage Host on your IP SAN, or
change the volume drive letter.
Note When you are reassigning a volume, the system it’s being assigned to must be
connected to the same Management Service as the original system.
To reassign a volume:
1 In the Enterprise View, select the iSCSI Storage Host you want.
2 In the Volumes View, right-click the volume you want, then select Reassign
volume
.
The Reassign Volume window opens.
3 Reassign the volume by selecting a different system from the iSCSI Storage Host
drop-down list, or select a new drive letter or remote directory.
4 Click OK.
Caution If you are reassigning a volume, ensure that there is no activity on the
volume before you continue. If the volume is in use, the reassignment will not
complete successfully.
5 Click Yes to begin the job.
