Note that the expansion-method attribute value storage-volume indicates that metro node uses the storage volume method
to expand this virtual volume by default.
List expansion-method attribute using Unisphere
When using Unisphere, click on the virtual volume name to display the properties of the virtual volume you want to expand.
In the example below, the properties for device_BASIC_vnx-1912_LUN146_1_vol indicate that the recommended expansion
method is storage-volume. Metro node uses the storage volume method to expand this virtual volume by default.
For more information on using Unisphere to expand a volume, see the Help available on the metro node management server.
