thank you for replying .
well iam working on a project where i need to allocate few blockgroups for
manipulation of data.
yeah i can write the code but i was actually thinking that could i somehow
manipulate the code at top level of allocation , so that not much changes
are made to the good old existing code and work is done.
if you can please provide me with some help
thank you
