Enter your choice
[Default: 1]:

Add Storage to the HCP System while it is Online
=============================================

This option adds storage to a node.  It should be used only by trained and
Qualified personnel.

FOR SAIN SYSTEMS: Before you begin, make sure that someone present is
qualified and authorized to use the storage management application for your
storage array.

WARNING (SAIN SYSTEMS): Be sure the new storage is properly configured at the
storage tier before continuing this procedure. Trying to add improperly
configured storage can result in data loss or can cause the system to become
inoperable.

Are you sure you still want to continue?
[Default: no]: yes

You chose “yes”, is that correct?
[Default: yes]:

After you have confirmed that you want to add storage, HCP Setup performs a set of installation prechecks.

Found these new volumes:
       Node 001:
1.	/dev/sdd at 2:0:0:3 (500GB)
2.	/dev/sde at 2:0:0:4 (1TB)

       Node 002:
1.	/dev/sdd at 2:0:0:3 (500GB)
2.	/dev/sde at 2:0:0:4 (1TB)
       Node 03:
1.	/dev/sdd at 2:0:0:3 (500GB)
       Node 04:
1.	/dev/sdd at 2:0:0:3 (500GB)
Is this correct? [y/n]: y

Typically this shows storage added to all nodes.

(Optional) To configure a dedicated database volume, the volume size must be at least 50 GB and at least 1.5 times the size of the existing database for each node.

All dedicated database volumes must be the same size. If you already have a dedicated database volume, any newly added dedicated database volume needs to be larger than the current one.

Enter yes to continue the procedure.

Do you want to select a dedicated volume for database? [Default: no]: yes
Do you want to select a new dedicated PG LUN for node 001? [Default: no]: yes
Enter a selection for node 001 [1, 2]: 2
You chose: “2. /dev/sde at 2:0:0:4 (1TB)”, is this correct? [Default: yes]: yes
Do you want to select a new dedicated PG LUN for node 002? [Default: no]: yes
Enter a selection for node 002: 2
You chose: “2. /dev/sde at 2:0:0:4 (1TB)”, is this correct? [Default: yes]: yes
Do you want to select a new dedicated PG LUN for node 003? [Default: no]: yes
Do you want to select a new dedicated PG LUN for node 004? [Default: no]: yes
This will add the new volumes and move database to the following dedicated
volumes. Do you want to continue?
   node 001: 2:0:0:4 (1TB)
   node 002: 2:0:0:4 (1TB)
   node 003: 2:0:0:3 (500GB)
   node 004: 2:0:0:3 (500GB)
[Default: no]: yes

HCP Setup formats and adds the new volumes. During this process, HCP Setup reports on its progress.
