Dear All,
I wanted to grow my RAID 5 volume (4x4To HDD) with 1 supplementaty HDD
After installing the new HDD, I did a grow option in my OMV RAID section, selected the new HDD and then click OK
OMV returned the following error
Code
Failed to execute command 'export PATH=/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin; export LANG=C.UTF-8; export LANGUAGE=; mdadm --grow --raid-devices=5 '/dev/md127' 2>&1' with exit code '1': mdadm: /dev/md127 is performing resync/recovery and cannot be reshaped

#5 {main}
and now my RAID volume is 4 HDD + 1 spare
what went wrong?
how can I now transform the spare HDD into active synced in order to expand my volume?
thank you for your help
