Replace wrong size drives in a vdev

[sfcredfox]

Community,

I pulled a bonehead move a while ago and added the wrong size drives as a mirrored pair to one of my pools. I'd like to replace them.

The pool should contain 6 pairs of 300GB drives, but I added one pair of 146GB drives instead.

1) Is there any problem with following the manual's procedure for offlining those one at a time, and doing a proper replace/resilver?

2) Will the pool be expanded to use the full space of the replacement 300GB drives? There's posts about pools automatically growing if you have the property set (which I will need to investigate), but I'd like to double check this is the same situation (it is in my mind).

System specs are in the signature.

Can't see signature and yes just replacing then 1 at a time by following the steps in the manual will do what you want.

Not sure why the signature didn't show, sorry.

Thanks S&L

If you have a spare drive port, follow the directions for replacing drives to grow a pool.
