    Good people,
     
    I'm trying to understand some of the technology in the FAStT storage
    management in regards to AIX. The marketing from IBM suggests that only
    Netware, Linux, Win2K Dynamic Disks, and Winnt4 logical disks on a FAStT
    array can be capacity expanded.
     
    If I expand a logical volume (on the FAStT) can I then utilize the extra
    capacity with AIX 5? My assumption is yes, because the Logical Volume
    Manager will see the extra capacity (may have to run cfgmgr) and will
    then be able to be expanded.
     
     
     
    Kind Regards,
