ps6100 volume and reserve
I have a volume with reported size of 300 GB, in use is 195 GB, and reserve is 204.gb
one VM in that volume, total size is 250 GB.
how do I increase the size of the reserve to accommodate the 250, or do I not need to?

Hello,
There is no need to extend the reserve. The volume in-use space will grow as needed. The graph is showing how much you have written to that volume so far.
This volume is thin-provisioned. So you only need to make sure you have enough physical space available in that pool as the volume usage increases. Using thin provisioned volume it is possible to over-subscribe your storage.
Regards,
Don
