Expanding iSCSI ZVol instructions don't work in TrueNAS-SCALE-22.12.2

Description

Confirmed in version TrueNAS-SCALE-22.12.2, updating the size of a ZVol that backs an iSCSI extent does not reflect the size increase to the client connected to given iSCSI LUN. There allegedly was a work-around by editing the comments on the ZVol/Extent and saving would force through the update, but that work-around didn’t work either.

Restarting the TrueNAS server or iSCSI service isn’t an option due to the service interruption to other clients. Online expansions used to work in FreeNAS.

Didn’t see anything in future release notes that this was fixed, but I could have missed it if it did get fixed already.

Thanks for the bug report. The underlying issue will be fixed in SCALE 23.10 when it becomes available.

In the meantime, there’s a workaround that is completely specific to you; as root in a Linux Shell:
