Subject: [linux-lvm] LVM2 with disks greater than 2TB
Date: Mon, 27 Mar 2006 17:56:29 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <44286D9D.405@the-rusty-nail.com> (raw)
I have 24 - 500GB drives raided such that 11 drives + 1 hot spare per
raid to get 4.54TB times 2. I want to use LVM2 to make this into one
~9TB disk, but when I create the partitions and do a df -h they show up
as about 560GB each instead of 4.5TB each. I do an fdisk -l and they
show up correctly. I am using Slackware 10.0. I have device-mapper and
LVM2 correctly installed. I am obviously hitting a 2TB limit from what
I have read, but does anyone know if it is possible to even do what I
want? If so, any suggestions on what I need to install to get this to
work? I am running the 2.6.15.4 kernel. Thanks
