dboonthego Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 I emptied Disk 2. I replaced parity with a larger disk and allowed parity sync to complete. I converted Disk 2 to XFS Encrypted. When the array started, it began to clear Disk 2, but I cancelled it. I formatted and started array and everything looked normal. I stopped the array and assigned the old parity to Disk 6. Started array and the clear process began on 6. I let that finish. Do I need to do something with Disk 2? Or re-run parity sync? Quote Link to comment

I had rebooted before posting. I agree it doesn't make sense. I might have unassigned/reassigned disk 2 in the same slot before changing the FS, but most definitely disk 2 started a clear which was unexpected. Quote Link to comment
