You can add up to 1,024 pool-VOLs (including volumes already in a pool) to a
pool.
Adding pool-VOLs to pools to expand pool capacity moves data to the added
space on a per-page basis, which rebalances the usage rate among parity
groups of the pool-VOLs.
Caution: Moving existing data to the added space on a per-page basis can
decrease host I/O performance.
Note: You can only increase the capacity for one pool at a time.
Before you begin
You must not be currently decreasing the pool capacity.
