March 20Mar 20 Hi,I currently have a ZFS pool with 2 vdevs, but the UI only shows one. The disks on the second vdev are even shown as unassigned. Curiously, the pool total size is correct, even though the disks aren't listed.When running zpool import, it's listed correctly pool: raptor id: 8349364709607528910 state: ONLINE action: The pool can be imported using its name or numeric identifier. config: raptor ONLINE raidz1-0 ONLINE sdf1 ONLINE sde1 ONLINE raidz1-1 ONLINE ata-WDC_WD80EDBZ-11B0ZA0_VRJT9D3K ONLINE ata-WDC_WD80EDBZ-11B0ZA0_VRJP9BGK ONLINEI actually added the second vdev manually, because the disks have different sizes. Any idea on how to fix the UI? It's not a critical issue, since my pool is working correctly. diagnostics-20260320-1217.zipThank you!
March 20Mar 20 Community Expert Solution The current version allows you to add a vdev with smaller devices, but you should be able to fix it by reimporting the pool:stop the array and then on main click on the first device for that pool and then "remove pool"back on main, create a new pool with the same name and 4 slotsassign the 4 pool devices, leave the filesystem set to autostart the array to import the pool

It wasn't clear to be which actions were going to be done.
