Re: Dynamic Disk

That's typically handled by the SAN software installed on Windows Servers
that handles those disks.

I am going to be putting an Exchange 2003 server online with SAN storage
The OS and Install files will remain on the local disk with the
transaction logs and storage on separate luns on the san

My question is what is recommended for the san disk Dynamic or Basic?
It is real easy to increase the size of the lun on the san but what is the
best way to have Windows see the increase?
