p34:~# mdadm --grow /dev/md3 --bitmap=internal --raid-disks=7
mdadm: can change at most one of size, raiddisks, bitmap, and layout
p34:~# umount /dev/md3

The disk only has about 350GB of 1.8TB used, any idea why I get this error?

I searched google but could not find anything on this issue when trying to grow the array?
