Joining subdisks

The Join Subdisk command lets you join subdisks. You can join two subdisks that had been one subdisk but that were split by the Split Subdisk command. You cannot split a subdisk and join it back to another subdisk that it was not split from. There also has to be room on the disk for the two subdisks.

Note:

Dynamic disks belonging to a Microsoft Disk Management Disk Group do not support the Join Subdisk command.

To join subdisks

  1. In the tree view, select the volume that contains the subdisks you want to join.
  2. In the right pane, click the Subdisks tab to display the volume's subdisks.
  3. Right-click on a subdisk you want to join to bring up its context menu.
  4. Select Join Subdisk from the context menu.
  5. In the window that appears, select the subdisks to be joined.
  6. Click OK to complete the command.

    Within a short time, the two subdisks in the right pane of the VEA GUI are replaced with one subdisk.
