In addition, the snapshot repository virtual disk shows its original capacity and the total capacity being added. The virtual disk involved shows a reduction in capacity. If all of the free capacity is used to increase the size of the virtual disk, the Free Capacity node involved is removed from the Logical tab.

•No, there are no empty slots—Install another expansion enclosure and additional physical disks. Use the information in the initial setup guides for your RAID controller module and your expansion enclosure. Go to step 9.

NOTE: The physical disks that you add must be of the same media type and interface type as the physical disks that already make up the disk group of the snapshot repository virtual disk.
