Lombardi, Johann
 

Hi Qiu,

 

We currently don’t support adding new SSDs to an existing storage node. Assuming that you have spare DIMM slots, SCM can be expanded if you take the engine offline and do a dump/restore of the SCM content. This cannot be done online/in-place.

 

Cheers,

Johann

Hi Johann，

 

Thanks for your reply. I mean yea, add new SSDs to an existing storage node. Adding SSDs is more economical than  a new storage node so that  it may be more common.

By the way, is there any way to expand SCM on the existing storage node?

      

 

 

 

Regards,

Qiu

Hi Qiu,

 

Could you please elaborate on what you mean by disk expansion? We currently have support for quiescent pool expansion by adding new storage node(s). Are you considering adding new SSDs to an existing storage node?

 

Cheers,
Johann

Hi DAOS,

I found that Daos does not support disk expansion. Is there any plan for disk expansion without restart?

 

Regards

Qiu
