If you mean adding storage shelves to increase capacity to an ESS, then no I 
don't believe it is supported. I think it is supported on the Lenovo DSS-G 
models, though you have to have a separate DA for each shelf increment so the 
performance may different between an upgraded Vs complete solution.

I haven't found a firm answer yet.  Is it possible to in place upgrade say, a 
GL2 to a GL4 and subsequently a GL6?

​

Do we know if this feature is coming?
