Do I need to down the service of oracle in HA to expand a volume for oracle DB?

When I want to expand a volume for oracle DB with a new lun, do I need to down the oracle service of active server in HA?

I can't make sure whether the volume is able to be expanded without down of the oracle service.

You do not need down time, in fact VCS will not even be aware you are expanding a volume.

If you are adding a new volume/filesystem as opposed to expanding one, you can also do this online, but you need to add new volume/filesystem to VCS configuration.
