zpool hasn't expanded
Hi Guys,

I have a raidz zpool that consists of four disks. 2x2TB, 1x1TB and 1x0.75TB.

Originally it was only 1x1TB, 3x0.75TB, and I had around 1.7TB of storage capacity. I've just switched out two of the 0.75TB disks for the 2x2TB ones. I did this one at a time and now the resilvering is complete...however it only shows 2TB of available storage. I was expecting around 3.75TB (using simple manufacturer sizes to make it easier Smilie) but not as small as 2TB.

Here are some details;

I have autoexpand=on set for the share zpool.

Code:
       0. c3t0d0 <ATA-Hitachi HUA72202-A3EA-1.82TB>
          /pci@0,0/pci103c,1609@11/disk@0,0
       1. c3t1d0 <ATA-Hitachi HUA72202-A3EA-1.82TB>
          /pci@0,0/pci103c,1609@11/disk@1,0
       2. c3t2d0 <ATA-ST3750640AS-C-698.64GB>
          /pci@0,0/pci103c,1609@11/disk@2,0
       3. c3t3d0 <ATA-Hitachi HDT72101-A31B-931.51GB>
          /pci@0,0/pci103c,1609@11/disk@3,0

          /pci@0,0/pci-ide@14,1/ide@0/cmdk@1,0

This is one of the better writeups I have come across on your issue: ZFS on different sized disks.

Hi fpmurphy,

I'd already read that one.....or so I thought.

Quote:
Note: There is one limitation with this structure. Ordering the disks in increasing size, disk(n) must be at least as big as 2*(disk(n-1))-disk(n-2).
My ordering was 2+2+0.75+1

I'm going to switch the disk out one at a time to get them in the correct ordering, leaving the 1tb one till the end so it doesn't expand.

I will let you know how I get on.

Cheers
