Hey folks.
I built my first FreeNAS server at my house and started down the learning path.
First, I really like FreeNAS. It just seems to work. Granted, I have some things to learn, but i will get there.
My setup is very simple.
FreeNAS box with (2) 2TB 7200 SATA drives. I set this up with iSCSI attached to a ESXi cluster. Works well.
However, as I was looking through the UI today, I realized I may have made a mistake when I started to create my first (and only) pool. Not sure how I did it but I can guess), but when I created the pool, I only selected about 900gb out of the total 1.8TB RAW. I am missing about 600gb+ of useable space.
So my simple question is, is there a way to recover from this, or do I need to start over?
I will start there and happily provide more information as needed to help me out.
Much thanks
