Here you can see under PD List, that drive 252:3 14 stand as UGood. Thats the new disk i have put into the server, and have been detected by the raidset.

To include this disk into the array that you see under VD List, you need to do this

 storcli /c0/v0 start migrate type=raid5 option=add drives=252:3

This will add the disk to the raidset. This can takes hours and even days, if you have a big raidset.
You can check the status with this command:

storcli /c0/v0 show migrate
Controller = 0
Status = Success
Description = None


VD Operation Status :
===================

------------------------------------------------------------
VD Operation      Progress% Status      Estimated Time Left
------------------------------------------------------------
 0 Reconstruction         2 In progress 9 Hours 52 Minutes
------------------------------------------------------------

DG=Arrays | Slot=Drive Bay No|VD=Virtual Drive/Logical Drive|EID=Enclosure Device ID

Here you can see that it will take 9 hours and 52 minutes to complete the Reconstruction

When it done with the reconstuction, the command from before will output this:

VD Operation Status :
===================

-----------------------------------------------------------
VD Operation Progress% Status          Estimated Time Left 
-----------------------------------------------------------
 0 Migrate   -         Not in progress -                   
-----------------------------------------------------------

And then you can check the array with the command from the top of this guide

storcli /c0 show

After this you need to change the partition table, and then expand the volume.
