Re: [Xen-users] XCP: 4TB local storage
Hi Jessy,
Thanks for the reply Denis.
I kinda figured that GPT is required.
So how does one install XCP with a GPT partion instead of an MBR partition?
The fdisk message (WARNING: GPT (GUID Partition Table) detected on
'/dev/sda'!) says that you are already using GTP partition. Are you sure
you are actually missing space? Could you check the ouput of vgdisplay
and "parted /dev/sda print all" (parted is not installed by default on
XCP, but you can install it if you enable Centos repositories)?
cheers,
Denis

Hi Jessy,
4TB storage in RAID10
We installed XCP 1.0 and it was successful except that XCP only sees 2TB
of storage.

the df output just tells you the size of the dom0 system partition.
The VM are stored on a lvm partition and you should use vgdisplay to
see what you have there.
Output of fdisk -l:

WARNING: GPT (GUID Partition Table) detected on '/dev/sda'! The util
fdisk doesn't support GPT. Use GNU Parted.
fdisk cannot deal with GPT partition table (see warning above), and
GPT is required for partition above 2GB. You should actually use
gparted to look at such a partition table.

Denis

Any idea on how this can be resolved? Thanks in advance.
