Symptom: The Expand Capacity button is grayed out. When you attempt to click the capacity expansion button, the following hover tip is displayed: This operation can be performed only when the shared disk is in the Available state.

Solution: Detach the disk from all servers. If the Expand Capacity button becomes available, you can expand the disk capacity.
