replaced all drives in RAID-10 array with larger drives -> failing to correctly extend array to use new/add'l space.

[pgnd <pgnd@dev-mail.net>]

i've replaced a working RAID-10 array's 4x3TB drives with new 4x4TB drives.

i run

	uname -rm
		6.12.10-200.fc41.x86_64 x86_64
	mdadm --version
		mdadm - v4.3 - 2024-02-15

the array's been rebuilt -- replacing one drive at a time -- & is up

	cat /proc/mdstat

i'm now attempting to resize the array to use the new/full space.

i have

	pvs
	  PV         VG         Fmt  Attr PSize  PFree
	  /dev/md2   VG_N1      lvm2 a--  <5.46t     0
	  /dev/md3   VG_N1      lvm2 a--  <5.46t     0
   
	vgs
	  VG         #PV #LV #SN Attr   VSize   VFree
	  VG_N1        2   1   0 wz--n- <10.92t     0

	lvs
	  LV             VG         Attr       LSize   Pool Origin Data%  Meta%  Move Log Cpy%Sync Convert
	  LV_N1          VG_N1      -wi-a----- <10.92t

after resizing the drive partitions

	fdisk -l /dev/sdk
		Disk /dev/sdk: 3.64 TiB, 4000787030016 bytes, 7814037168 sectors

	fdisk -l /dev/sd[lmn] | grep "Linux RAID"
		/dev/sdl1   2048 7814037134 7814035087  3.6T Linux RAID

		/dev/sdn1   2048 7814037134 7814035087  3.6T Linux RAID

then

	pvresize -v /dev/md2
		Resizing volume "/dev/md2" to 11720536064 sectors.
		No change to size of physical volume /dev/md2.
		Updating physical volume "/dev/md2"
		Archiving volume group "VG_N1" metadata (seqno 12).
		Physical volume "/dev/md2" changed
		Creating volume group backup "/etc/lvm/backup/VG_N1" (seqno 13).
		1 physical volume(s) resized or updated / 0 physical volume(s) not resized

pvs STILL returns

	pvs
		PV         VG         Fmt  Attr PSize  PFree
		/dev/md2   VG_N1      lvm2 a--  <5.46t     0  <--------- NOT expanded
		/dev/md3   VG_N1      lvm2 a--  <5.46t     0

attempt to `--grow` the array doesn't succeed

	umount /dev/VG_N1/LV_N1
	mdadm --stop /dev/md2
	mdadm --assemble --force /dev/md2 /dev/sdk1 /dev/sdl1 /dev/sdm1 /dev/sdn1
	lvchange -an /dev/VG_N1/LV_N1
	vgchange -an /dev/VG_N1

	mdadm --grow /dev/md2 --raid-devices=4 --size=max --force

		mdadm: cannot change component size at the same time as other changes.
			Change size first, then check data is intact before making other changes.

what's incorrect/missing in that procedure?  how do i get the full partitions to be used by the array?
