For an iSCSI LUN, this operation increases the size of the host LUN. After the capacity increases, follow the procedure provided by your host operating system to discover the new size of the LUN and expand the file system of the LUN.
To increase volume capacity, you must associate a link. If you don't have an existing link, create a link. To associate a link in the file system, select Associate link under Account name. Once the link associates, return to this operation.
