Hello.
Today I replaced a failed HDD, in a RAID-5 array, with a new HDD.
As far as I can tell, everything is working fine. The new HDD has been assigned to the array and it is in the process of being rebuilt while the system is online and working seemingly fine. Yet, there is something that is troubling me: OMSA is reporting the virtual disk size as 8,187.84GB (8TB) instead of the previous and actual 930.48GB. This is crazy, the array is composed of 3x 500GB HDDs and I can't understand why this is happening... can this be a corruption of OMSA itself or is the RAID array at risk? At the moment the rebuild process is about 50% in, but I doubt that the outcome will change, and it is worrying me.
Windows is reporting the correct disk capacity though. Not sure what to make of it anyway. I hope someone can give me some suggestions as to why OMSA is reporting this ludicrous disk capacity which has no correlation whatsoever with the hardware.
Thank you!
