Hi, Included a patch to modify /usr/lib/anaconda/fsset.py
to assign by default pesize to 32Mo as it is mentioned in new version of vgcreate
man extract below. “To limit kernel memory usage, there is a
limit of 65536 physical extents (PE) per logical volume, so the PE
size determines the maximum logical volume size. The default PE size of
32MB limits a single logi- cal volume to 2TB (see the -s option to
change that limit). There is also (as of Linux 2.4) a kernel limitation of
2TB per block device.” Without this patch max volume group is 65536*4Mo (hardcoded
in anaconda) which is about 256Go. Since RHEL 3.0 update 1, we can set pesize option on
volgroup from ks but default value to 32Mo should be great. Could you apply this patch on current? Thanks David Maciejak |
