Hi,
I would like to grow the RAID1.
- Raid1 size has about 50GB
- two HD partition (sda2, sdb2) have about 80GB+ (each)
I do:
# mdadm --grow /dev/md0 --size=max
and I get the info, that the new size is 50GB. And I wonder: why not 80GB? The
size doesn't change! If I try to force size (--size=xxxxx), I get the message
that there is no space.
What did I wrong?
Bellow some facts about my configuration.
Please help.
Thank You in advance
