Expanding Block/Lun Size - Dell EMC Unity 300
I need to expand my block size for available free size in the same pool. I am wondering if it will cause any downtime. What would be the best practice to do it?.

it wont cause a downtime
However to recognize and use the new size most clients need to unmount, rescan and expand the file system used on the LUN
