just after deletion of a (fat) volume, compactcpg, or adding of drive capacity (new drives), the 3par needs to reinitialize the chunklets used. it does this typically with about 3 chucks a second.
so if you have tested with 2TB worth of storage, it will take the 3par about 680 seconds or a little less then 12 minutes to make it ready for usage again.
you can see the status of the (un)initialized space in bot the IMC (system, space, open all "+" signs on the free space until it shows the uninitialized space), or on CLI -> "showsys -space", look for "Free - Uninitialized"
