I'm trying to install OpenVZ on CentOS 5 (x86_64), using a RAID array with 3.5TB. I have defined swap and HN partitions, and still have about 3.4TB of storage to use for the VEs.
When I try to create the third partition with fdisk, I am unable to create it with more than 2TB, and also unable to create an additional partition with the remaining storage (about 1.4TB).
Isn't the openvz kernel for centos 5 compiled with CONFIG_LBD enabled?
I also tried with gparted live cd, I saw all the free space, but it also was unable to create the partition with more than 2TB - it says it can create a partition with -1 bytes - probably an internal overflow?
Any tip on how to solve this problem?
Thanks!
Fernando
