VxRail disk group upgrade
In this section, we will learn the disk group configuration rules and the drive expansion procedure in the VxRail cluster. When we plan to upgrade the vSAN capacity in the VxRail cluster, we must consider the following disk group configuration rules:
- Mixing SAS/SATA/NVMe SSD drives in the same disk group is not supported.
- All capacity drives must be the same size in the same disk group.
- Mixing capacity drives with capacity SSD drives in the same disk group is not supported.
- Each VxRail Appliance supports the different capacity drive sizes and types in the different disk groups.
- Each VxRail Appliance supports the different cache drive sizes and types in the different disk groups.
The following table shows a summary of the disk group configurations in each VxRail model:
In the following sub-sections, we will discuss how to access the drive expansion procedures and upgrade the number of drives in the disk...
