Shrink CLARiiON Storage Pool

Hi,

Is there a way to take a disk out of a CLARiiON Storage pool (1 out of 25 disks).  Unfortunately I used all my 450GB disks in the storage pool & created luns . I now realized that I forgot to create hotspares. I don't  have any unbound 450GB disks (only 133GB).

I could use lun migration & delete/recreate the pool but the luns are huge & would take forever plus I might not have enough capacity on the 133GB disks pool.

Is there a way to take 1 disk out of regular clariion storage pool (not thin) i.e shrink the pool similar to what is available on symmetrix. If not, Is the feature on the roadmap, coming anytime soon?

PS: My Storage is CX4-480 - Flare 30

Thanks!

There is no way to remove a physical disk once it has been bound in the Pool or Raid Group.
