Symptoms

Assume that you run the Diskpart.exe command prompt utility to extend a Cluster Shared Volumes File System (CSVFS) volume on a Windows Server 2012-based cluster. The volume extends beyond the size limit of the file system. In this scenario, Disk Manager and Diskpart.exe recognize the file system as a RAW file system instead of as a CSVFS file system.

For example, assume that a file system that was formatted by using an 8 KB cluster size has a size limit of 32 TB. When you extend a CSVFS volume beyond 32 TB, Disk Manager and Diskpart.exe recognize the file system as a RAW file system.

Resolution

After you install this update, the virtual disk service prevents you from extending CSVFS volumes beyond the size limit of the file system.
