Moving your PDDE /Storage from existing LUN (full) to New created LUN
Problem Description : I run out of PDDE Disk capacity, The backups on the PureDisk Volume were fails with status code 129.
I did the following : -
moved the existing PureDisk Volume /Storage to Newly created LUN (high Disk capacity)
- PDDE /Storage is mount on /dev/dsk/c1t500A09818617DCC6d0s7 ( 30 GB LUN)
- df -h /Storage/ shows
Filesystem size used avail capacity Mounted on
/dev/dsk/c1t500A09818617DCC6d0s7
30G 26G 2.9G 91% /Storage
When 91% of /Storage touches HWM, Backup operation starts failing with Status 129 : -

- Refresh the Status of Disk POOL
When you restart the JOB failed during 129 status, The backups operation will start on PureDisk Volume with new capacity (80GB in this case)

Hi Is it possible to swap out
Hi
Is it possible to swap out an HP smart array 6400 card for the 4 port model? Reason I ask is that we have reached storage capacity on the 2 x MSA30's attached to the existing card. The server cannot physically take another 2 port card, so wondering if I can replace with a 4 port card attach another 2 x msa's and resume?
You can move the Data from
You can move the Data from /Storage to /Storagenew and then unmount the old /Storage partition. There is a Technote on how to do this. I have used it twice and its been 100% both times.

Better Migration Option
We actually highly recommend using the rysnc method over the FSsync method, as documented here:
