I've followed the freenas documentation to replace drives with larger capacity to grow the pool but something isn't working because I cannot access the additional free space. I would really appreciate some guidance getting the additional storage online.

The size of my Windows SMB share has not changed, however the main screen dashboard in the freenas GUI shows more free space available.

zpool list shows 145T size but only 108T allocated?

root@freenas2:~ # zpool list
NAME SIZE ALLOC FREE CKPOINT EXPANDSZ FRAG CAP DEDUP HEALTH ALTROOT
freenas-boot 232G 3.23G 229G - - - 1% 1.00x ONLINE -
nas2vol1 145T 108T 37.2T - - 24% 74% 1.00x ONLINE /mnt


I've checked that auto expand is on:
root@freenas2:~ # zpool get autoexpand nas2vol1
NAME PROPERTY VALUE SOURCE
nas2vol1 autoexpand on local


I've also tried
zpool online -e data gptid/.... for all disks in the pool

I started out with 20 x 6TB disks, added one new 8TB disk at a time in a free hot swap bay, replaced the 6TB with the 8TB and let the resilver process complete and then repeated until all disks had been upgraded. Not my first time upgrading storage capacity but first time it hasn't worked out as expected.
