| No you can not add on the fly. Yes it is being considered but you will
have to check with product managment to det details. I usually
recommend that the customer starts a new Raid set when he runs out of
room. Otherwise you are constantly redoing your subsystem.

| A much more important question would be if the operating system can
handle the growth of a disk under it. I think the usual answer is NO.

813.3 | Yup operating systems don't like changes like that | SSDEVO::RMCLEAN | | Thu Mar 20 1997 13:58 | 5 |
| re .-1
That is a good point UNLESS you have a partitioned raidset. Then it might
make some sense. If you need more info talk to product management but
I don't see much being done for HSx40/50 controllers in this manner.

| If you want to grow the size of an existing volume on
Digital UNIX, then just use ADVFS. It has that capability.
Note that this is a S/W capability, you still can't change
the size of an underlying logical spindle.
