Expand the size of a volume by adding constituents
-aggr-list aggr1,aggr2 -aggr-list-multiplier 2will cause four constituents to be created in the order aggr1, aggr2, aggr1, aggr2. The default value is 1.
-aggr-list aggr1,aggr2 -aggr-list-multiplier 2The following example increases the size of a FlexGroup by adding 3 constituents:
cluster1::> volume show -vserver vs1 -volume flexgroup -fields size vserver volume size ------- --------- ----- vs1 flexgroup 180TB cluster1::> volume expand -vserver vs1 -volume flexgroup -aggr-list aggr1,aggr2,aggr3 Warning: The following number of constituents of size 20TB will be added to FlexGroup "flexgroup": 3. Expanding the FlexGroup will cause the state of all Snapshot copies to be set to "partial". Partial Snapshot copies cannot be restored. Do you want to continue? {y|n}: y [Job 52] Job succeeded: Successful cluster1::> volume show -vserver vs1 -volume flexgroup -fields size vserver volume size ------- --------- ----- vs1 flexgroup 240TBThe following example increase the size of a FlexGroup by adding 6 constituents using the -aggr-list-multiplier:
