Fuck it, we’ll do it live!

I’m the kind of #sysadmin who after doing a mostly complete backup decides to just live rebalance / from RAID1 to Single instead of swapping in a new larger ssd.

It does seem to be working fine, heck i didn’t even get a warning when i tried to do the data portion, only when i also wanted to switch the metadata from raid1 to single did it tell me i’d have to “force” something.

Worst case I’ll have roughly the same amount of downtime that i would if I went with a new drive/install, but so far its looking like I wont even need to reboot.
