She also wasn't able to state what OS's would support this hot add feature.

Which means that its only good for a subset of applications (at this time) which are SQL/DB and Web. If they expand its ability to discover and track transactions for other applications like Exchange, then it could.. For now I think there is NO support outside of the narrow scope of what the acquired BeeHive application provided.

But perhaps you could migrate a slow disk to a faster LUN? Or remove other load from that disk group? Migrate to a newer generation host (in the future generations this will be more compatible)? Hot-adding memory would definetly be a possibility. Think of the limits but don't forget the of the possibilities! Not everything can be scaled, of course.
