Shrinking A RAID Array
My google-fu appears to be weak today…
I currently have 8*4Tb in a RAID6.
So far I’m only using 6Tb
PV VG Fmt Attr PSize PFree Used
/dev/md6 Large lvm2 a– 21.83t 15.37t 6.46t
Let’s say I wanted to remove 2 of these disks from the array and shrink it down to a 6*4Tb
How would I do this?

back it up to external media, rebuild the raid, restore.
