RE: Disk Array > 2TB

Got it working.

 

Forget about using parted. I just went and make the filesystem straight into the device.

 

mkfs.xfs –L /home -f /dev/sdb

 

that did the job

 

Now df correctly reports 2.6 TB:

 

/dev/sda3             17580928    698932  16881996   4% /

/dev/sda1               256666      8460    234954   4% /boot

none                    517192         0    517192   0% /dev/shm

/dev/sdb             2685296640       528 2685296112   1% /home

 

Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on

/dev/sda3              17G  687M   17G   5% /

/dev/sda1             251M  8.3M  230M   4% /boot

none                  506M     0  506M   0% /dev/shm

/dev/sdb              2.6T  528K  2.6T   1% /home

 

xfs_info:

meta-data="" isize=256    agcount=32, agsize=20979904 blks

         =                       sectsz=512

Looks like the problem was with parted.

Subject: Disk Array > 2TB

 

I’ve got a system with a 3ware 9000 RAID card with 12 250GB SATA drives.

And another one with two 3ware 9000 RAID cards each with 8 250GB SATA drives.

 

Both are running kernel 2.6.8-1 (521) 686smp (Systems are dual Xeon 2Ghz HT).

 

I’ve got no problem with the 2nd system. Both arrays are 1.75 TB and running fine. However I’d like to join both disks on a single volume.

 

The 1st system I cannot get the system to recognize the full 2.5 TB.

 

This is my syslog:

Sep 28 14:13:32 heracles kernel: XFS mounting filesystem sdb1

 

However df (and everything else) reports:

/dev/sda3             17580928    680736  16900192   4% /

none                  506M     0  506M   0% /dev/shm

/dev/sdb1             513G  528K  513G   1% /root/home

 

What is going wrong?

How can I manage to join both 1.75TB on a single volume? (volume manager doesn’t support above 2TB does it?)

 

Thanks in advance.
