How to expand my boot volume?

[ovizii]

I was running freenas of 2x 8GB USB sticks, one of which needed replacement so I replaced it and resilvered then thought, wth lets replace both and did so successfully but now realized, both sticks still show:

Boot Volume Condition: HEALTHY
Size: 7.4 GiB
Used: 5.9 GiB (79%)

even though they have both been replaced by 32GB sticks.

I then checked:

Code:

freenas# zpool get autoexpand freenas-boot
NAME          PROPERTY    VALUE   SOURCE
freenas-boot  autoexpand  off     default

so how do I get freenas to use the full size of the USB sticks?
