setup
. When prompted for the PS Series group to join, specify the
group name and IP address. For complete array setup and member
configuration instructions, see the PS Series QuickStart or the Group
Administration manual.

across all the group members and the group capacity expanded. You can
then add new volumes or increase the size of existing volumes.
