Hello,
I have a nas running SCALE 23.10.1 cobia
I replaced 2 4TB disks with 2x 8TB drives.
The smallest drive in the array is now 6TB. (these will be replaced with 8TB once budget allows)
Autoexpand is enabled on the pool. After the resilver completed I expected the pool to expand to 6T capacity per drive. It did not, stayed at 3.6T
The closest related issue I can see is this (vdev mirror not expanding)
a55e4fd3-41f5-4557-853b-2c07724d3ad8 and 06e895bd-c236-4786-8bd9-70ac185b85f1 are the replacement 8TB drives, still showing at 3.64T
Looking at the above, there appears to be no swap partition on the replaced disks.
To my knowledge, I replaced and resilvered all drives via the GUI. The system is an update from truenas core.
I'm uncertain why some of the drives are UUID and others SDX labels.
I am uncertain why the replaced drives do not have swap partitions. (is this a bug?)
Any clues what my next steps are to fix the expand?
Should swap partitions have been created when replaced? (I understand swap was a way to accommodate small differences in similar sized drives, which seems useful)
The forum suggested export/import each drive? Doing this from CLI will this upset truenas?
I have done expands before in core without incident.

I appear to have a similar situation as @ https://www.truenas.com/community/threads/replaced-mirror-with-larger-drives-but-cant-expand-pool.112702/ but that thread ended with inconclusively. I have a pool, tank1. It is 6 disks, 3x 2-wide mirrors. originally, it was 6x 8tb drives. I replaced...
