October 10, 20187 yr I recently finished the process of swapping/upgrading my cache drives (RAID1) from 500gb to 1tb drives. The process I used was Stop array Unassign drive from cache Assign new drive to cache Start array Allow rebuild to complete Stop array Unassign drive from cache Assign new drive to cache Start array Allow rebuild to complete Everything is working properly except for the amount of storage the cache shows. It's currently displaying a total size of 750GB when it should be 1TB (RAID1). From some reading, I'm under the impression I need to rebalance the array. I wanted to be sure I was going about this correctly though. A backup will be taken just in case but is this just a matter of selecting "Balance" in the Balance Status section of the cache? Or do I need to specify -dconvert=raid1 -mconvert=raid1 I'm assuming I need to specify it as the btrfs balance status displays: No balance found on '/mnt/cache' Currently I'm seeing: Data, RAID1: total=462.73GiB, used=140.50GiB System, RAID1: total=32.00MiB, used=96.00KiB Metadata, RAID1: total=3.00GiB, used=1.29GiB GlobalReserve, single: total=328.11MiB, used=0.00B No balance found on '/mnt/cache'

October 10, 20187 yr Community Expert One of the cache devices is still on the old size, for some reason it didin't resize to max, stopping/re-starting the array should fix it.
