    Posted this here since it's the version being developed but note that this bug is also present on v6.8.3.

     

    Like mentioned in the title the very nice pool direct convert options on the GUI are based on the number of pool slots instead of the actual number of devices, so if you have a 2 pool device (or even just 1 device) but have 4 pool slots selected you'll have the option to convert to raid5/6/10, you can then press balance but it will fail to convert to any invalid option.

    This was a deliberate choice. It will fail indeed when not all slots are populated.

     

    Let me rethink this ...

     

    (thanks for bringing this up)
