Adding additional disc - assistance needed

edited Jul 10, 2013 5:14AM in Linux Operating System (MOSC) 2 commentsAnswered ✓
Hi All,
I would like to add another disc to my server running OL 5. It is a virtual machine and I have already added one disc and it works perfectly fine but when I am trying to add third disc, it fails after I commit mkfs command.

This is what I do after I create and paste .img file into VM's directory:

1. xm block-attach (VM name) file:/(path to img file) /dev/hdd w

(I already have hda, hdb and hdc devices that is why I called the one I'd like to attach hdd and I can see it when I commit sfdisk -l command but it says it has no partitions)

Howdy, Stranger!
