NetApp Resize Volume - Command Line

How to resize a NetApp Volume using the command line (cli).

NetApp Resize Volume Command – Increase Vol Size

The following command will resize a NetApp Volume, in this example I am increasing the volume ‘cifs1’ by 200Mb:

1
2
netapp> vol size cifs1 +200m
vol size: Flexible volume 'cifs1' size set to 700m.

Note: The volume ‘cifs1’ was originally 500Mb now we have added an additional 200Mb to the volume making it 700Mb.

NetApp Reduce Volume Size Command

Reducing the volume size is exactly the same as increasing the NetApp volume size, you simply use – instead of +. Here is an example reducing the volume ‘cifs1’ by 200Mb:

1
2
netapp> vol size cifs1 -200m
vol size: Flexible volume 'cifs1' size set to 500m.
