to stop the operation and wait for it to complete (recommended) or click

to
continue.
A dialog box will appear that says:
Please Wait – File System Expansion is Initializing
. While the
expansion is initializing, you will not be able to perform any functions on the StoreOnce GUI for
about 30 seconds.
A warning is also displayed. Click
OK
to continue.
The
Storage Configuration
page will show the newly added storage expansions in the
Configured Storage
section of the page as soon as the storage expansion starts. All storage
expansions, including the base storage, will report a warning state to show that expansion is in
progress.
While a storage expansion operation is in progress, no other actions on the
Storage
Configuration
tab will be available.
After expansion has completed, the new capacity will be made available for use. Parity Initialization
may still be in progress after expansion completes, and if this is the case then a warning will be
shown for each expansion on which parity initialization is still running until it is complete. This is
illustrated in the following screen example.
