Hi Bakunin,

Understand your recommendation. My aim is to know if we can go this way technically Smilie
For the current status, there is no need to add new disk to that VG, we just need to create new VG and that's all. The scalable VG with PP size 1 GB is created Smilie

I have 1 more point, can you explain to me the in-band and calculation of the percentage? In the docs it says this is used to calculate the usage percentage of disk, but somehow I can see 0%, 100% but the disk has data already on it and still has free PPs.

Code:

Initialisation has failed and the driver will not attach to this controller. amr%d: can't establish configuration hook amr%d: can't scan controller for drives The scan for logical drives managed by the controller failed.

The controller cache is being flushed prior to shutdown or detach. Operational diagnostics amr%d: I/O beyond end of unit (%u,%d > %u) A partitioning error or disk corruption has caused an I/O request beyond the end of the logical drive. This may also occur if FlexRAID Vir- tual Sizing is enabled and an I/O operation is attempted on a portion of the virtual drive beyond the actual capacity available. amr%d: polled command timeout An initialisation command timed out. The initialisation process may fail as a result. amr%d: bad slot %d completed The controller reported completion of a command that the driver did not issue. This may result in data corruption, and suggests a hardware or firmware problem with the system or controller. amr%d: I/O error - %x An I/O error has occurred. SEE ALSO
