Description of problem: some SANs allow online LUN extension. Using that in RHEV currently means some manual work: 1) on all hosts, rescan iscsi disks: echo "1" > /sys/block/sdX/device/rescan 2) on all hosts, resize multipathed device: multipathd -k'resize map dm-Y' 3) on SPM, run: pvresize /dev/dm-Y 4) let engine know current storage size (can be done by force-switching engine) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): encountered on 3.2 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. extend online backing iscsi LUN 2. try to make use of the new space in RHEV-M 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
steps to extend multipathed device are from RHEL docs: https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/DM_Multipath/MPIO_admin-troubleshoot.html#online_device_resize
