Hi all,
Hope someone can help me with this problem.
I have a N5200BR which had 5 x 320GB HDD arrange in RAID 5.
Recently I purchase 5 new 750GB disk to increase capaciity and went through the long process of swapping out the drives one by one. This process went well.
I clicked expand the array and was given the option to expand the array by x%, from which I chose 58% (ie use all free space). Now this took all of a about 10 seconds! A quick check of the Logs shows
2008/05/27 08:33:08 N5200BR : Expansion Start [ RAID ] [ RAID5 ].
2008/05/27 08:33:14 N5200BR : [Expansion Fail] LVM-lv stop fail ...
2008/05/27 08:33:14 N5200BR : [Expansion Fail] Resize file system fail ...
2008/05/27 08:33:14 N5200BR : [Expansion Fail] Umount data volume fail ...
2008/05/27 08:33:15 N5200BR : [Expansion Fail] Mount data volume fail ...
008/05/27 08:33:15 N5200BR RAID resize successfully.
2008/05/27 08:33:19 N5200BR : Expansion End [ RAID ] [ RAID5 ].
Now, the RAID information shows
RAID Status Used Disks Total Data
Level Disks Capacity Capacity
5 Healthy 1,2,3,4,5 2787 GB 855.5 GB / 1139.3 GB
And the pie chart show 100% used. WTF? Where's the 1.6TB of storage gone?
Any ideas how to fix this?
I am on FW 2.0.0.8 BTW.
