From the filer config guide for 7.0.3

The following table defines the maximum system capacity supported by an R100:

Configuration rules Size For a 4-shelf configuration (in TB) Maximum raw aggregate/traditional volume size 7 Maximum raw capacity 7 For a 7-shelf configuration (in TB) Maximum raw aggregate/traditional volume size 8 Maximum raw capacity 12 RAID Group Size (in number of disks) RAID4 Default 8 Maximum 8 RAID-DP Default 12 Maximum 12

it's not possible. the best you can do is two aggregates like this:

filer> df -hA

Aggregate total used avail capacity agr0 5975GB 5792GB 183GB 97% agr0/.snapshot 0TB 0TB 0TB ---% agr1 2151GB 1524GB 627GB 71% agr1/.snapshot 0TB 0TB 0TB ---%

and two spares.

Hello fellow toasters,

I plan to migrate my R100 (84 136 Gbyte disks) (yes I should upgrade to newer systems ;-), to flexible volumes, ideally I would create a single aggregate (12+12+12+12+12+11+11 disks leaving 2 HotSpares). Someone mentioned that this would not be possible, and that the R100 has a limit of 8 Tbyte for the aggregate size, thus I had to create two aggregates? Is this true? could not find any hint on the NOW site yet ...
