Ultra6 expansion failed
Sun Dec 22 16:20:57 CET 2013 Volume expansion failed
Sat Dec 21 12:52:11 CET 2013 Volume expansion or migration started. Do not interrupt the system during this time. When finished, email notification will be sent to the alert contact list.
I had 5x3TB disks inserted (1 redundant). Total space was 10.9TB. After a few months i added a 6th one .. And after 24hours or so, i get the above message.
The 6th is green in FrontView. But the totale space is still 10.9TB
How can i fix this? turn nas off, remove 6th, boot up again and then insert again?
i did offline expansion when i added the 5th disk .. do i need to do this again??
Thanks in advanced

- Still looking for a solution beside factory reset. i thought on the last offline expansion i didn't use a USBStick to create a swap file. but just a swap file on the NAS. This shouldn't matter right?
- Solved!! i created an additional swap file (on on NAS and one on USBstick) and it did work .. i now have 13TB of space
