F5-221 - Increase Volume - Ext4 - RAID5

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)

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.
