The Logical tab is updated. The snapshot repository virtual disk that is having its capacity increased shows a status of Operation in Progress. In addition, the snapshot repository virtual disk shows its original capacity and the total capacity being added. The Free Capacity node involved in the increase shows a reduction in capacity. If all of the free capacity is used to increase the size of the virtual disk, the Free Capacity node involved is removed from the Logical tab. A new Free Capacity node is created and shown in the Logical tab if these conditions exist: • A Free Capacity node did not exist prior to the addition of capacity. • Not all of the capacity that is added is used to increase the capacity of the snapshot repository virtual disk. On the Physical tab, the unassigned physical disks or unconfigured capacity that you added to increase the capacity of the snapshot repository virtual disk change to assigned physical disks. The new assigned physical disks are associated with the disk group of the snapshot repository virtual disk. 158 Configuration: Premium Feature-Snapshot Virtual Disks
