November 2013 |
Procedure to increase drive capacities for RAID 10:
*Note: Some of the images were taken after the volume was already expanded/extended, thats why some of the options are greyed out/are different sizes.
|
Step 1: Open and login to ASM (Adaptec Storage Manager)
|
Step 2: Replace drive(s) and wait for the rebuild to finish. Do the same with the remaining drives in the RAID.
|
*Step 3: Right click and click on "Expand or change logical device"
|
*Step 4: A window will appear. Select RAID 10 (or whatever RAID you have)
|
*Step 5: Click on "Advance settings". Select a capacity display unit and enter in a new size then click on "Next"
|
*Step 6: Click on "Apply"
|
Step 7: Wait for the reconfiguration to complete
|
Step 8: Restart the computer when reconfiguration completes.
|
*Step 9: Go to Disk Managment in Computer Management and extend volume
