When I used a VG of 1.82TB to create a 100GB pool, it faild.
The err mesg "cannot allocte memory",however, my host's meminfo:
[root@host2 persistent-data]# cat /proc/meminfo
MemTotal: 10234416 kB
MemFree: 9685956 kB
whether I should configure somewhere to make it work well(create bigger pool)?
This is the mesgs:
