It's a Dell server. &nbsp; We used the standard tool named Dell OpenManage (OMSA) . &nbsp; OMSA says the Virtual Disk 0 is 1.6GB, which is what we expect since it used to be 1.2GB. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;On the Windows Server side we still see only 1.2GB.

You should not need to reboot, but it may be necessary depending on your system model, RAID controller, firmware versions, and operating system.<br />
<br />
If you don't see it in Disk Management, then there is a good chance you will need to reboot for one of the reasons above, however you might try rescanning the disks (right-click Disk Management, Rescan).

Just added a new DISK to my Dell Server's Raid Logical Array 0. &nbsp; &nbsp;The reconfiguration process finished hours ago. &nbsp; When will we see the new 450GB space as extended available space in Windows Disk Management ? &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Does Windows need a reboot to see the new Disk 0 size? &nbsp; &nbsp; We can't really reboot this server very often.

Servers are computing devices that are similar to desktop computers in that they have the same basic components, but are significantly different in size, configuration and purpose. Servers are usually accessed over a network, and many run unattended, without a computer monitor, input device, audio hardware or USB interfaces. Many servers do not have a graphical user interface (GUI), and are configured and managed remotely. Servers typically include hardware redundancy such as dual power supplies, RAID disk systems, and ECC memory, along with extensive pre-boot memory testing and verification. Critical components might be hot swappable, and to guard against overheating, servers might have more powerful fans or use water cooling.

Server Hardware

Computer data storage, often called storage or memory, is a technology consisting of computer components and recording media used to retain digital data. In addition to local storage devices like CD and DVD readers, hard drives and flash drives, solid state drives can hold enormous amounts of data in a very small device. Cloud services and other new forms of remote storage also add to the capacity of devices and their ability to access more data without building additional data storage into a device.
