Increase thin provisioned virtual volume

Post by danletkeman »

Hello,

I need to increase the capacity of an exported virtual volume that is currently thin provisioned.

This is the first time I have needed to do this, so I wanted to know if there is anything else I should do other than increasing the size of the volume?


Enabled features

InForm Suite
System Reporter
System Tuner
Thin Conversion
Thin Copy Reclamation
Thin Persistence
Thine Provisioning
VSS Provider for Microsoft Windows

Thanks,
Dan.

The 3PAR side is easy, just edit the VV and increase the size in the IMC.
Rescan for changes at the O/S and then extend your file system, techniques / support for doing this will vary by O/S and version.
