Hello,

Does anyone know if GPFS allows the increase in capacity of already existing 
nsd/disks, in order to add capacity to a storage pool?

I need to increase the space on an existing filesystem, and wonder if rather 
than having to add new nds/disks to the storage pool, I could leverage the 
ability of the backend block storage array (NetApp E5600) to increase the 
capacity of existing raid volumes, and propagate the increase in space all the 
way through nsd/disk/storage pool.  Sounds somewhat close to handling thin 
disks – yes, not quite the same, but I found no reference in the manuals either 
way.

Many thanks!
