I was originally attaching the results of "gpart show" as a screenshot =
because I was working through an internet kvm module on a system several =
states away that was booted in standalone mode. But the mailing list =
seems to strip off attachments, so I ssh'd into the system in normal =
operation to get output of "gpart show" that I can cut and paste here.

Subject: Expanding a partition in gpart after increasing the size of an =
array.=20
I have a freebsd box with an LSI Raid controller in it. It had 4 =
3-terabyte drives configured in an 8TB array. I added a 5th drive and =
built that into the array. Of course, the amount of drive space that =
shows in operation in FreeBSD did not change, presumably because I need =
to resize the partition.
I was trying to follow the partition resizing instructions shown here =

http://www.unibia.com/unibianet/freebsd/resize-your-existing-freebsd-root=
-partitionslice-safely-without-re-installing
but when I do the =E2=80=9Cgpart show =E2=80=9D I don=E2=80=99t see the =
free space. What I do see is a change in the apparent overall size of =
the disk and a set of parititions that don=E2=80=99t add up to the new =
size of the disk.
Is there a way to tell gpart that the size of the drive has changed?
