Hello,
Recently we received a CDot cluster with 12 partitioned disks pre-installed from NetApp and we started using it and a week later we received 2 more SSDs which were not in the package earlier.
Now we have layout like below

Can we use the 3.49TB unpartitioned disk in the aggregate "aggr_single_file" or we can only use the partition 1.0.11 (1.68TB) in the aggregate expansion.
Would it mean that using 1.0.11 (partitioned space) would leave us with no spares in the Raidgrp?
