Note
If any one of the conditions described below is true,
the Add Capacity to Existing Disk Array function will
not be possible:
All available drives on the controller are already
configured (often resulting from a previous Automatic
Configuration)
1
The selected “array” is really a JBOD drive
The selected array already contains eight (8) physical
drives
The selected array is a spanned array
A total of 32 logical drives have already been
configured on this controller
All target IDs on all channels are used in existing
arrays
The drive to be added has a capacity that is too small
to be used in the selected array
❑
Select an Array to Expand.
The first step in this process is to select the array you wish to expand. You do
this from the Disk Array Selection screen (Figure 2-32), which will display
only the arrays that are expandable (spanned arrays are not displayed).
1. To add capacity in this situation, you must first connect one or
more additional physical drives to the controller, then use the
Rescan for New Devices option on the main menu.
