Great info thanks for that. Can I add the free space to the virtual disk live?
OK I have spent some time looking around for a guide on how to add disks to our SAN and can't really find anything definitive.   We currently have a 10 disk RAID 5 SAN connected to 2 Dell PE servers in a Windows failover cluster. We have 1 Disk group containing 2 virtual disks (1 for Cluster Quorum and one that contains virtual servers). We are currently nearly out of space and I have purchased 5 x new disks to add to the SAN. So I guess I have a few questions; 1. Can I physically install all disks at once? Can this be done live? 2. The Add Free Capacity (Physical Disks) command says "You can use this free capacity to create more virtual disks within the disk group" however I want to expand the virtaul disk that my VHD's are stored on. Can this be done? And can it be done live? 3. Does anyone have a guide? The Dell Users manual for the MD3000 isn't overly descriptive.
Add storage to MD3000
