Increasing ViPR Virtual Storage Pool capacity after increasing array storage capacity

What is the process to upgrade capacity in array and make that capacity available to existing ViPR pool?

    In order to expand the capacity in the array you would add physical disks to the system and create raid groups or storage pools.  Once this is completed you can rescan your storage provider in ViPR and you will see the new raid groups/storage pools.  These can than be added to your existing "Virtual Storage Pool" or newly created V.S.P.  At this point you can utilize this storage in ViPR.  I hope this helps answer your question.

    Another question in relation to this, Is it possible to grow/expand an existing VNX storage pool that is being managed by ViPR?
