Message-ID: <s847de40.025@pgkvfax> (raw)
Hi all,
I tried to set up LVM 0.7 on a Compaq Pro Liant 3000 Server with 2 CPUs and a Smart Array Controller 4200 that include 3 9.1 GB SCSI Disks. The patch and the new kernel gave no errors, but I can't create a physical volume. Here are the outputs of fdisk and pvcreate:
sgate:/dev/ida # fdisk -lu
Disk /dev/ida/c0d0: 255 heads, 32 sectors, 4355 cylinders
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/ida/c0d0p1 * 73440 1101599 514080 83 Linux
/dev/ida/c0d0p2 1101600 2154239 526320 82 Linux swap
/dev/ida/c0d0p3 32 73439 36704 12 Compaq diagnostics
/dev/ida/c0d0p4 2154240 35536799 16691280 fe LANstep
sgate:/dev/ida # pvcreate -v /dev/ida/c0d0p4
pvcreate -- locking logical volume manager
pvcreate -- checking physical volume name "/dev/ida/c0d0p4"
pvcreate -- invalid physical volume name "/dev/ida/c0d0p4"
pvcreate -- unlocking logical volume manager
Does anybody have a Solution. Could it be that the partition is too big?
Thanks
Stephan
