(my apologies if you see this twice, I couldn't see my previous attempt reach the archives) I've been trying to create a large (4TB) volume on a 3ware raid controller, and I get "device-mapper: reload ioctl failed: Invalid argument" from lvcreate and Feb 19 13:42:10 siniolchu kernel: device-mapper: device 8:3 too small for target Feb 19 13:42:10 siniolchu kernel: device-mapper: dm-linear: Device lookup failed Feb 19 13:42:10 siniolchu kernel: device-mapper: error adding target to table from the logs. interestingly enough, the DevSize reports the following: siniolchu:/# pvs -o +dev_size PV VG Fmt Attr PSize PFree DevSize /dev/sda3 internvg lvm2 a- 4.09T 4.06T 89.86G if I'm reading this correctly, the device seems to be telling LVM that it's 89.86G only? any suggestions on how to solve this would be appreciated. -- Terje _______________________________________________ linux-lvm mailing list linux-lvm@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-lvm read the LVM HOW-TO at http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/
