5.3.3 Expanding a Partition

You can expand an existing partition, with some limitations. You can

only expand a partition into contiguous, following, free space. For

more information about partitions, see Section 5.3.1 on page 78.

To expand a partition:

1. From SAM, select Manage EF2800 > LUN Management > Expand

Partition. The Expand Partition page displays with a list of existing

arrays.

2. In the Select an Array to View LUN Information panel, select the

array whose partition you want to expand. A graphical depiction

of the selected array’s partitions and a list of the partition names

and sizes displays below.

3. In the Partition Menu panel, select the name of the partition you

want to expand.

You can only expand a partition that has free space after (to the

right of) it. You can create free space by deleting a partition, but

deleting a partition also deletes all data on the partition.

If the selected partition can be expanded, a graphical depiction of

the selected partition and the available free space displays below.

4. In the Expand panel, enter the amount of free space that you want

to add to the selected partition in MB. You must enter the amount

in increments of 1MB.

5. Click Expand Partition.

Expansion begins and the percentage completed displays. You can

perform other functions during the expansion. To check the progress of

the expansion, select Manage EF2800 > Disk Array Config > Array Utility

Progress or any item from the Disk Array Config menu. The status of

the expansion displays in the list of arrays.
