I'm guessing your disk is partitioned using older MBR records (typical of BIOS) and not newer GPT records (typical of UEFI). An MBR disk can only have 4 primary partitions; to fake having more partitions than that, one of those four partitions must be reserved as an extended partion that is then further subdivided into all other extended partitions. You haven't show the actual layout of your disk or what command you are attempting that is failing, but I'm guessing that you are failing because you are attempting to request a new primary partition when you are at the point where you can only create an extended partition. > > > 1TB = 2 Pools = 1 dir = 1 partion = allow allocates 50GB/ea > 1 disk = 3 partitons > 300GB unused > > Storage Pool Options are: fs, iscsi, logical, mpath,netfs,scsi Okay, now you are confusing me. I am not sure what you are attempting to try, nor what is failing, because there are simply not enough details here (are you trying to use a disk pool, or an fs pool, or something else?) -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
