max file system limit on vnx5400 and vnx5800
We have a file system size : 15.6 TB on VNX, max limit on FS is 16TB I think.
We are rehydrating data from Commvault as it will be decommissioned -> however it has about 8-9 TB data archived from the file system which is already 15.6 TB. In order to recall data to VNX from Commvault it will exceed the 16TB limit.
Is there any option from VNX to change File system max limit parameter ?
Thank you!

Hello Anusha Hegde,
There is not a way to change the max size limit more than 16TB. In case we would wish to implement file system greater that 16TB size, you can implement nested mounted file system as stated in KB: https://dell.to/36q8w3I

@DELL-Sam L Thank you for information.
Can this be implemented on existing file system which is used by CIFS?

Hello Anusha Hegde,
Yes you can implement this on an existing system.
