Powervault Modular Disk Storage Manager extend vdisk
I've looked in the Dell™ PowerVault™ Modular Disk Storage Manager CLI Guide but i can't find how to extend a vdisk, is this possible or the limitation of this system?

Use the addcapacity command.
E.g. smcli -n array_name -c "set virtualdisk [\"virtualdiskname\"] addCapacity=size_in_bytes";
On Linux systems the section around the virtualdiskname part (the [\" and \"])is a bit different, but you'd want to read the CLI manual on how to use commands in Linux.

This command works fine for me, but where did you find this command? Because it is not available in the SMCLI documentation.

Which SMCLI documentation did you not find the command in?
For reference, see pages 199 & 201 of the CLI guide at:
