Expanding an NFS file system

I need to double an NFS file system (256 to 512Gb) He's already using it so taking it away and reszing it would not be optimal.

Is it just as simple as telling it to extend? I assume I have to make sure that I extend it into the pool it already exists in. What should the host administrator do (anything?)

just extend the file system like this:

nas_fs -xtend filesystemname size=256G pool=clar_r5_performance

or whatever pool you used to create that file system.

Admin will not need to do anything.

yes, it is that simple.

By default it will pick the same pool for the extension as the original file system was built on.

I believe you can also specify the pool.
