So, I am new to freenas, I have had this vdev running before, but I rebuilt on Corral and we all know what happened there. I was having issues with the import of the corral volume on 9.10. So I backed everything up and started over. But I can only make the Volume though Shell, the GUI Volume manger will not let me make a 16 drive Raidz2, or even a raidz3, only way I can use all 16 drives in the manger is via two Vdevs, But I want only one Vdev. and if I make it in Shell, I cannot modify it in the GUI. so not able to mnt it or mess with permissions.
Images of Shell and GUI
So How do I get a Volume with 16 drives in Raidz2? I want the ability to lose ANY two drives, not just one drive out of eight.
