F5-221 - Increase Volume - Ext4 - RAID5

Post by cpradio »

I've read the following and the steps just are not working for me
viewtopic.php?f=25&t=1902&p=10335&hilit=volume#p10335
viewtopic.php?f=75&t=1543&p=8155&hilit=volume#p8155

I originally had 3 6 TB hard drives in a RAID5 array. I just recently added a 4th to the array and the sync process has completed. I see 16 TB available in the storage pool.

However, when I go to increase the Volume, it doesn't keep the changes.

Initial settings:

Updated to use max storage pool:

When I click confirm, it acts like it is saving the changes, but the changes are never reflected in the volume. Is there anything else I need to be considering? The volume is shared via a folder.

Okay, seems that click MAX didn't work because it didn't want to use the entire free space. I changed it to
16669 (leaving off the .21) and it took it. Still says I have .20 left, but I'm good with this result)

thanks for help
Similar to metal detection, magnet fishing is about finding metal objects in the water using strong magnets. Have you ever imagined what could be at the base of the lake near where you live?

Thank you for this info. I’ve spent hours trying to solve the same problem, as soon as I removed the numbers after the decimal point, the storage space increased immediately.
