Not expanding after resync...

I had put in a new higher capacity drive... it did its thing:

 

Sun Mar 4 2018 10:04:42 Disk: Disk in channel 3 (eSATA Port 1) changed state from RESYNC to ONLINE.
Sun Mar 4 2018 10:04:29 Volume: Volume eda2 health changed from Degraded to Redundant.
Sun Mar 4 2018 10:04:18 Volume: Volume eda2 is resynced.

 

But the UI isn't showing any progress on expanding the volume like it normally does.  I looked at previous logs and it usually shows an entry of something when it's done, like 2.5 days later - I just want to make sure it's actually working.


Is there a process I can view to see if it's working or not?

    You can click UI>System>Volumes, to see if there is a volume syncing, or you press buttons on front panel to see the LCD, volume syncing will show on LCD

      That's the thing, the UI isn't showing anything. I know for a balance, I can use the btrfs commands to check. But what's the command for sync?

      Or is there something else that I can do to get it to start syncing?

        What was the volume config before and after?

         

        Did you try a reboot?
