I got a new drive and my original intention was to replace it (16 TB for an 8TB) However I did it wrong and ended up adding the drive to the array.  Is there a way I can move the data off the 8TB to the 16 so I can remove it?  Main goal is to get everything to CMR drives to make things work a little smoother.  I will be getting another 16 TB at Christmas time.  

 

Merry Christmas!  Any Help would be greatly appreciated.  I must suck at putting in search terms here.

There are multiple ways to accomplish what you want, the dynamix file manager plugin is probably the safest way.

And after the drive is empty you have to New Config and rebuild parity without it.

I am currently moving the data from the old drive using the dynamix file manager plugin, hopefully I did it correctly,   I may need help to get the New Config figured out/

Thanks trurl!

The drive I want to remove seems to have finished copying, but it says there is 55.8 gigs on it yet, but all that appear is the Parent directory on the drive.  Do you think I am safe to pull it?

If it's XFS there's always some overhead, if it's empty you can remove it.

I am sorry if I am understanding things incorrectly.  

I have emptied the drive, I would pull the drive out of the system, and then go to new config and apply and that will update everything to change the config to not having that drive any longer, but will not affect the data on the other drives.

Correct. You must let New Config rebuild parity (don't check the parity valid box).

Thanks again to all that helped.  It is solved and back up with the new drive.  I marked the last comment as solution, although this was pretty much a thread of solutions
