hi all
im looking at upgrading some of my disks in my freenas to a larger size. Ideally id like to change one disk at a time and let the pools rebuild.
my freenas version is 11.3-U5
im a bit confused as to what the process would be so thought id ask to get a better understanding of the process before i go breaking anything.
zpool status shows that my pools have the following configuration.
Pool1 - raidz1-0
4x 2TB disks in this pool
Pool2 - mirror-0
2x 6TB disk in this pool
with the configuration above am i able to simply detach a disk from a pool and put a larger disk in and let it rebuild and then do that with the next disk?
if i detach (select the detach option, not physically pull the disk out) a disk from a striped raid (pool1) would that kill the raid or would that simply remove a disk and reduce capacity?
my understanding is that i should be able to put a disk in Pool2 into offline mode and detach and then attach a new disk and hit replace so it rebuilds.. is this correct?
i am fairly new to freenas so let me know if you need any more info
appreciate any help with this one
cheers!
