Use this procedure to allow or prohibit automatic expansion of all file systems in the specified storage pool. This setting only affects auto-expansion; manual expansion of file systems in the storage pool is not affected by this setting.

Configure auto-expansion.
You can configure file system auto-expansion at the storage pool level as follows:
- Enable auto-expansion
Even if the storage pool is configured to allow its file systems to automatically expand, the file systems must also be configured to support automatic expansion. After a file system has expanded, its size cannot be reduced.
If file system auto-expansion is currently disabled, you can enable it by clicking
enable auto-expansion in the
FS Auto-Expansion option box.
- Disable auto-expansion
When automatic expansion of a file system is disabled, manual expansion of file systems in the storage pool is still possible.
If file system auto-expansion is currently enabled, you can disable it by clicking
disable auto-expansion
in the
FS Auto-Expansion option box.
