Expand a VMFS datastore on IBM DS3512 array

$

I was pretty content about expanding a VMFS datastore provisioned from an IBM DS3512 iSCSI storage array until I read the manual:

 

https://www.redbooks.ibm.com/Redbooks.nsf/RedbookAbstracts/sg247914.html?Open

 

It states the following hosts are supported for expansion (section 9.5.7):

 

The operating systems that support a dynamic increase of capacity in a mapped logical drive

are:

 

AIX

 

Linux

 

NetWare

 

Solaris

 

Windows Dynamic Disks

 

Windows Basic Disks

 

 

It doesn't list ESX specifically but I've quite happily expanded VMFS LUNs on other storage arrays without any issues. Can I expand a VMFS LUN on a DS3512 iSCSI array?

 

Thanks
