Balancing data with new disks

Hi Joan,

option #2 is crazy, because you are adding new drives, that are
empty and are not used at all.
Option #1 is the one, I would use. You would have to ensure, that
you insert the drives, use STRASPBAL and check that the usage is
really even. Otherwise you have to repeat the BEFORE starting SAP as
long as this is OK.
Opotion #3 is the most time consuming, but always the "safest".

I would do a backup beforehand and start with option #1.

Regards

Volker
