Thanks. Hopefully, I will get to it today. The LUN is only 500G now, and I would increase it to 750G, I think. It's a backup drive for a SQL server, to write out their .BAK and .TRN files. So no need to worry GPT vs MBR, etc. I will be sure to RESCAN disks, on the node that currently owns this drive. > > -----Original Message----- > From: listsad...@lists.myitforum.com [mailto:listsad...@lists.myitforum.com] > On Behalf Of Michael B.
