    Extending the Storage Bitmap?   The Question is:    N The configuration is an Alpha VMS with HSG80 storage.  I had an exiting stripeJ  set that I converted to a CONCATSET and then added a second stripe set toN  that.  Question: How do I now make the addition storage area available to VMS  ( extend the bitmap to i M nclude the new storage space )?  Do I need to init and restore the drive each I  time, or is there a more expedient method?  An ANA/REPAIR identifies the   issue, but does not extend it.   The Answer is :   H   For information on StorageWorks, please contact a StorageWorks Wizard.   F   As for extending the bitmap, the only way to do that prior to V7.3-2G   is to re-initialize the volume with the INITIALIZE command, typically E   in conjunction with a subsequent BACKUP/NOINITIALIZE restoration of A   the volume contents if the volume contents are to be preserved.    ?   V7.3-2 and later include Dynamic Volume Extension support, as    referenced in topic (9349).    0  Answer written or last revised on  14-APR-2004
