Abstract
Provided are a computer program product, system, and method for dynamically increasing capacity of a storage device. For address mappings, each addressing mapping indicates a storage device block address for a host block address and a compressed block size indicating a number of blocks storing compressed data for data written to the host block address starting at the storage device block address. Write data for a write request to a host block address is compressed to produce compressed data. A block size of the compressed data is less than request block size of the write data for the write request. Indication is made in the address mapping for the host block address of a storage device address at which to start storing the compressed data in the storage device and the compressed block size. The compressed data is sent to the storage device to write at the storage device block address.
