Adding disks to a mirrored volume, where Data ONTAP selects the disks

You can choose to add disks thatData ONTAP selected, to a mirrored volume.

Step

  1. Enter the following command:{ aggr | vol } add { aggrname | volname } ndisks[@disk-size]

    aggrname is the name of the aggregate to which you are adding disks.

    volname is the name of the traditional volume to which you are adding disks.

    ndisks is the number of disks to use. Adding new disks would fail if the number of disks is an odd number.

    disk-size specifies the disk capacity, in gigabytes. Half these disks must be in each disk pool.

    Note: If you use the disk-size option, first determine the size of spare disks in the disk pools using the aggr status -r or vol status -r command.
