Volume manager can not use added space

[To-P]

Just in case, here is the correct procedure when resizing RAID array in DSS V6:

1). Apply appropriate Storage extension Key or make sure that your current license key is valid also for the storage size after the LUN size extension,
2). Expand the LUN size using the H/W RAID tools(RAID migration)
3). Perform "Unit rescan" (DSS webgui -> CONFIGURATION ->volume manager -> Vol. groups)
4). PV Resize (DSS Console -> ctrl + alt + X -> 11. PV Resize)
5). Reboot

In case you are using trial version, you don't have to apply the storage extension key because trail version is for unlimited storage.

Hello,

we have the same Problem.
We made all like Thread #19. But after several reeboots we got no free Space in Volume Manager!!
What is our way??




We used the last Version vom Open-e DSS 6

Please be sure that the license for your storage capacity is not less than your storage size.
Also did your H/W RAID tool accept to expand the LUN size?
And in console mode, what does the system show you there?
