Managers,

I have an external disk shelf with 4 drives in it. RAID 1 with simple concatenation. (I know striping would be good, but speed is not very important.)

I have a AdvFS domain sitting on top of the LVM volume.

I need to install 2 additional drives in the shelf and increase my file domain size.

Unfortunately, I just have a base AdvFS license and I'm unlikely to get an Advanced AdvFS license.

I'm pretty sure I can mirror and concatenate them to the LVM volume easily enough.

Then I need to extend my AdvFS domain to see the bigger LVM volume.

How do I get a AdvFS domain to recognize the bigger LVM volume?

Can I do this without unmounting my filesets?

Or is a really bad case of having to backup/re-configure/restore?
