Expanding The NAS Pool On The Dell PowerVault NX3500/NX3600/NX3610 NAS Solution

You can expand the storage capacity of your system without affecting the services to the clients. However, the process occurs over a period depending on the total number of the existing and added LUNs, the total storage capacity, and system workload. You can add additional LUNs from the storage capacity that is already available on your storage array to the NAS cluster solution.

The MD Storage Array must have additional capacity to allocate to the NAS cluster solution. For more information on disk group and virtual disk expansion, see the Modular Disk Storage Manager Administrator's Guide, at dell.com/support/manuals.

To expand the NAS cluster solution storage capacity:

  1. Start the NAS Manager on your management station and log on as admin.
    • NOTE: By default, the admin password is Stor@ge!.
  2. Select Cluster Management > Maintenance > Expand Luns. The Expand Luns page is displayed.
  3. Click Expand Luns from the lower right of the page. The Status page is displayed indicating the progress of the Expand LUNs operation.
  4. Click Finish.
