The Capacity of a Larger LUN is Listed as 2 Terabytes
If a LUN that does not yet belong to a storage pool is listed in Xsan Admin with a
capacity of 2 TB even though you know it is larger, make sure you have set Xsan to
allow the LUN to exceed 2 TB. If the size is still shown as 2 TB (which can happen if you
used the LUN with an earlier version of Xsan), try relabeling the LUN.
To prepare a LUN with a capacity greater than 2 TB:
1
In Xsan Admin, select the SAN in the SAN Components list and click Setup.
2
Click LUNs, select the LUN in the list, and click Edit.
3
Select the option “Allow LUN to exceed 2 TB capacity.”
