Extending a File System
To expand an existing file system, choose Storage | File System | Extend . The
File System Extension window appears. The new disk device is added to the
end of the file system you are expanding. (A file system can be expanded only
if it was originally created on a dingle disk device.) A file system can be
expanded multiple times up to the limit of two terabytes.
Each disk device used to expand a file system must be at least as large as the
disks already in the file system. Assume that the original disk drive is 200 GBs.
The first disk device used for expansion must be at least 200 GBs. If this
expansion disk drive is 3000 GBs, all subsequent expansion disk drives must
be at least 300 GBs.
1. In the list of file systems, click on the one you want to expand.
2. In the list of available devices, click on the device you want to add onto the
file system. This device is integrated onto the end of the existing file system.
3. Click Save to expand the file system.
