expansion failure Pro Business edition

Postby seelinger » Sun May 13, 2012 11:06 am

I went through the long process of upgrading my 500gb drives to 1tb drives. After all the syncing was complete, there was an expand volume button available in the web interface. I clicked it and the NAS restarted. The volume expansion failed because I had disabled journalling. It asked to disable and try again. I've disabled journalling, restarted, but the option is not there. I though maybe it would automatically restart the resyncing....so I've restarted and waited for a steady condition a couple times. No expansion or option to expand available. any suggestions?

Could you please run a reboot with filesystem check and try expanding after that?
