Heavily scripted project environments, where initial storage estimates 
are exceeded and more needs to be added without the complications of 
managing seperate filesystems part way through.

It is unlikely that more than 2 arrays would be involved and I used the 
example to try and understand how XFS adapts to changing topologies.
