I added an additional drive to the pve/data thinpool. The GUI sees the space:

Code:
Enabled
Yes
Active
Yes
Content
Disk image, Container
Type
LVM-Thin
Usage
6.01% (115.74 GiB of 1.88 TiB)

However, when ever I try to move data into the LVMThin I get the following error.

Code:
Using default stripesize 64.00 KiB.
WARNING: Remaining free space in metadata of thin pool pve/data is too low (99.13% >= 93.75%). Resize is recommended.
TASK ERROR: lvcreate 'pve/vm-104-disk-1' error: Cannot create new thin volume, free space in thin pool pve/data reached threshold.

When I run LVS I get the following:

Code:
  LV            VG  Attr       LSize   Pool Origin Data%  Meta%  Move Log Cpy%Sync Convert
  data          pve twi-aotz--   1.88t             6.01   99.13


I am guessing it is the Meta% that is causing this error. Does anyone have an idea/suggestion as to how I can fix this?
Thank you,
Ben
