Hi,

I recently built a new DPM 2012 SP1 roll-up 1v2 server. Initial it was as a test and it had a 1TB of storage assigned to it for disk based backups. I have now moved the DPM server into a production role and needed additional backup storage space so i have increased the storage to 4TB.

Windows has recognized the increase in storage and shows the additional 3TB of space available in disk manager as per the screenshot below.

DPM however recognizes the increased storage but doesn't recognize that there is 3TB of free capacity as per the screenshot below.

I have performed a rescan of the disks and a reboot of the server but so far it has not changed the unallocated space.

I have had a look at the various DPM PowerShell commands but I cant see anything along the lines of rescan for unallocated space.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Jeremy

Thank you for the response but due to time constraints I removed the additional 3TB from the iSCSI LUN and created a new one. I then updated DPM and all is working. If I have time in the future I will investigate again.
