This command allows you to change the name of an Array Drive. The name serves to iden-
tify an Array Drive in GDTSETUP. This can be very helpful for configurations where several
Host Drives of various types are operated by a single controller.

The Expand Array Drive option, which is also available online within GDTMON, includes two
functions:
1. Migration of the RAID level of a given Array Drive
RAID 0 -> RAID 4 and vice versa
RAID 0 -> RAID 5 and vice versa
2. Expansion of the capacity of a given Array Drive
To initiate a migration or expansion with a RAID 4/5 Array Drive, the state must be ready.
The data on the Array Drive remain intact and are not affected by the expansion.
The additional capacity is introduced as new Host Drive (see next pages).
If a Logical Drive fails during the expansion, the expansion process continues until the ex-
pansion is finished. The Array Drive changes into the fail state.
In the following example the capacity of a given 400MB RAID 5 Array Drive is expanded.
