SYMPTOMS
Consider the following scenario:
- The computer is running Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1 (SP1).
- You use a disk management program to expand a logical unit number (LUN) size.
The disk management program may stop responding.
CAUSE
This problem occurs if the following conditions are true:
- The LUN size changes without sending UNIT ATTENTION code.
- The disk management program sends IOCTL_DISK_UPDATE_DRIVE_SIZE disk I/O control code to update the logical unit number (LUN) size.
If these conditions are true, the call to read the drive capacity for this disk I/O control code causes the disk management program to stop responding. This problem occurs because of the partitioning lock type that the disk class driver uses.
