Performing File System Expansion
In practical terms, expanding an existing file system means allocating additional storage to that file system. You add additional storage by creating a new stripe group in the file system configuration file, and assigning new disks to the stripe group.
Here is an overview of the steps required to enable File System Expansion:
1.Define new disk LUNs and make them available across the fibre channel SAN to the metadata controller and StorNext clients.
2.Use the StorNext GUI to create a new stripe group from the LUNs.
