"Emulated" disk contents are not actually there during drive size upgrade

Featured Replies

I upgraded my drive size for the first data disk in my array (i have 2 parity disks) and it says the device is being "emulated" currently. However the disk `/mnt/disk1` is actually empty and any files that were on that disk are missing.

 

Are the files lost for good or is there something I can do to recover them? The data rebuild is currently 40% of the way done.

 

I've still got the old disk - so worst case I wonder if I can mount it with unassigned devices and copy over the files? The filesystem is XFS encrypted though.
