So we added some disks successfully to the aggregate and then resized the volume just fine.   Went to resize the lun and I mistyped the size, it was supposed to be 7.5TB, but I did 75TB.  The lun is thin provisioned and we have no rescanned from VMware, can I just decrease the size of the lun safely?

hi

 

Generally, you are not advised to decrease the size of a LUN

If you still want to decrease the size of a LUN, check out the following links
