Hello
Used the zfs expand function and added a total 2 disks in raidz2-1 vedev.
Planning to add 1 more, and then get total 14 drives/2vedev’s
The free space is a bit lower than expected, is this a GUI bug? does rebalance help here? or are the best to just delete the whole pool and rebuild it?
AIUI, it’s known OpenZFS issue.
Raidz vdev expansion again… (Look up the tag I added.)
Short answers: The issues comes from ZFS itself. Rebalancing would partially help, but only backup-destroy-restore (no expansion) would totally solve it.
The space is there to use, so you can also live with a wrong reporting of free space.
Hello,
Thanks, destroy and rebuild is then the best soulution here.
