I was hoping to grow the size of the raid10. I was following this link
https://raid.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Growing#Expanding_existing_partitions

Re-read the second sentence on the first line of that page.
doh! so I can only grow raid level 1/4/5/6

ok, can you suggest how can I increase the /dir (/dev/md10) with bigger disks?

I already backed up the data.

does linux software raid allow disks of different sizes in raid10? I
did not see much discussion
of raid level 10 in that wiki page.
