Using DVE on shadowed system disk

Post by rkelly » Thu Apr 20, 2023 3:20 pm

Does there need to be any special process for expanding a shadowed system disk. It has already been expanded on the storage controller and the volume limit is already set to 1TB.

Can we just do SET VOLUME /SIZE on the shadow set to obtain the new disk size?

It's easy: just use $ SET VOLUME/SIZE disk-name and the useable space on the volume will be increased to the physical size of the disk or the expansion limit, whichever is smaller.

$ HELP SET VOLUME/SIZE is your friend ;-)

Thanks, we do that on our other disks, but I wanted to make sure that the system disk was not any different.
