Issue

  • Volume size is not increasing when namespace size is increased on GUI.
  • From GUI NVMe namespace can be created without creating volume.
  • GUI automatically creates volume with size greater than NVMe namespace size.
  • There is no option to select thin or thick while creating namespace.
  • It automatically creates thin volume and in turn thin namespaces.
  • So when namespace is increased, namespace size gets increased more than volume size as its thin.
  • Even when volume space guarentee is modified to thick increasing the namespace size will not increase the volume size as the namespace will still be thin.
