I am running TrueNAS Core (The most recent boot environment says 13.0-U6, but see below) on the following hardware.
MB: Supermicro X10SLL+-F
CPU: Pentium G3440
RAM: Samsung 8GB DDR3-1600 ECC
I have a RAID-Z2 pool that was made of 4x8TB drives.
It was my understanding that if I wanted to expand the capacity of the pool, I could replace one drive with a larger one, resilver, replace and resilver the next drive, and so on until all four drives had been replaced. After that the pool would expand to use all available space.
So I replaced each drive with a 10TB drive with a resilver being completed between each replacement, and after all four drives were replaced, I clicked on "Expand Pool" in the UI, but the size of the pool has not changed. I have tried rebooting and scrubbing, but I'm still showing 12.38 TiB instead of something closer to 17 TiB.
Here is some info about my pool:

Did I do something wrong? What am I missing? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
