Hi All,
I *hope* this isn't a web GUI bug. If someone has tried doing this before, perhaps they could point out something I'm doing thats completely wrong. Otherwise, it seems that I really am being prevented from adding some SSD devices to my existing pool configuration.
In short, I have two SSD drives I would like to add to my zpool. Currently the zpool contains two existing SSD devices for log use and 4 disks arranged in RAIDZ2. When I attempt to add this new pair of SSDs via the volume extender, I am prevented from doing so and the web GUI seems to think that I am attempting to add these as a striped set, which would be problematic because the disks in the pool are RAIDZ2. During the attempt I leave all the Volume Manager options to their defaults except for the 'Volume to Extend' and 'ZFS Extra' choices.
It would be nice to have these devices added. I'm willing to do it via the CLI but I'm worried that if I go googling around and execute just any zpool commands, I might do something wrong. I.e., I'm not certain there are any FreeNAS specific nuances I should be aware of before attempting the CLI route.
Screenshots attached. Guidance sought. Help?
