Any quick and easy way to convert a thin provisioned volume to thick.
I cant find anything on 3par IMC to do that.
Any help appreciated.

For as far as I can see this option is not included in IMC.
Best option would be to make a new thick volume and use VMotion, if you are using VMWare.

I've been reading up on doing this too. "Physical Copy" will let you make a copy from thin to thick, but then you have to manually un-export the thin and export the thick in its place... requiring down time to do.
