Hello

In order to add Storage to existing Service Manager, if it is the first NFS volume then we need to configure few parameters like setting up the NFS vlan, updating the MTU to 9000, setting up the NFS ip pool etc before the file storage can be added and provisioned.

If the file storage is already provisione in the service, you can go ahead and add the new file storage and just provision. Luns will be automatically assigned after the provisioning. Manual configuration is not required.

For Block storage -> just add the storage and provision
