Resize Volume command in WFA completes successfully, but Volume size is not increased

A_Campbell

I'm trying to increase a FlexVol using the Resize Volume command in WFA. I just want to increase the size of the volume by an amount that will be input by the user. What do I enter for the AutoSizeIncrementSize parameter? I tried using $Size. The command completes successfully, but the volume doesn't get increased.

Hi Campbell,

Thanks for the details.

For creating customized workflow for Resize volume please follow the below steps:

1. Search and define should be done for volume dictionary.

2. For TargetSize Instance, MVEL expression as mentioned here: ((int)volume2.size_mb ) + $TargetSize (Attached is the screenshot for reference)

3. Resize volume command, TargetSize should be provided in MB(if one GB need to increased please provide as 1024)

For more details please let us know, we will have WebEx disucussion.

Best Regards,

Shiva

I just realized I think I should be using the 'TargetSize' parameter. I am able to put a final size of the volume successfully, but I want to increase the volume size by a user input amount. I tried using volume1.size_mb + $Size, but I get error:

Illegal expression: volume1.size_mb + $Size
Location: 'Resize volume' command > 'Other Parameters' tab > 'TargetSize' property

Anyone know the syntax here?

I am still getting the illegal expression error. See attached screenshots. I believe my volume selection should be working fine because if I have user input only as final target size, I'm able to resize the volume successfully. But, seems to be failing on illegal expression with ((int)volume2.size_mb ) . Thanks for the assistance, I can do a webex if you like.

Thanks for the details.

In workflow, Please change Parameter type from string to Number for TargetSize parameter.

If still problem exists, we will have webex on tomorrow(March 06) 7 P.M. IST.

Please confirm your availability for the Webex.
