Hello. I have also just resized a RAID volume and too experienced this problem.
Reading through the debian bugreport ExplodingLemur posted it seems that it's fixed in latest gparted version. Here is the output of parted: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# parted /dev/sdb GNU Parted 1.7.1 Using /dev/sdb Welcome to GNU Parted! Type 'help' to view a list of commands. (parted) print Error: The backup GPT table is not at the end of the disk, as it should be. This might mean that another operating system believes the disk is smaller. Fix, by moving the backup to the end (and removing the old backup)? Fix/Cancel? Fix You found a bug in GNU Parted! Here's what you have to do: Don't panic!
