Did this disk take on its full disk capacity after it completed? I see that is was only 29% completed when you posted this. Just curious...

data 0d.19 0d 1 3 FC:B - ATA 7200 211377/432901760 212718/435647712 (replacing, copy in progress) -> copy 0c.20 0c 1 4 FC:A - ATA 7200 211377/432901760 423889/868126304 (copy 29% completed)

Also, maybe you can try the "disk fail" command; the filer will use the first compatible spare disk that appears in 'sysconfig -r' or 'vol status -r' output. In your case, if you have a 500gb spare disk, then it will pull that one first. Although "disk fail" and "disk replace" uses the same copying technology (Rapid RAID Recovery), maybe it will trick the filer in not taking the characteristics as the failed drive. Which seems to be the case in your situation.

nope. once part of an array, always part of an array. As far as I know, there is currently no way to grow a disk to reclaim unused space.

You must either destroy and recreate or create a new, and do a vol copy or the like...

Hello Toasters one 250gb disk has inserted to 500gb disk aggregate by mistake Is there a way to fix this issue ? I tried "disk replace" command to replace the 250g disk with 500gb spare disk but it look like it's using the 500gb disk as 250gb

Is there a way to increase the used size without destroying this aggr and build it from scratch ?
