Hi guys

This will be a really quick question for someone... but just want to get confirmation before I dive in and go for it.

I'm looking to dedicate a whole partition to a particular VE and I understand that involves changing VE_PRIVATE and VE_ROOT

But does the VE_PRIVATE location need to be mounted on the host node first?

So my device is /dev/sdc1
Would I set VE_PRIVATE as /dev/sdc1?

Or do I need to mount it on the host to /mnt/sdc1... and set VE_PRIVATE to /mnt/sdc1 and VE_ROOT to /mnt/sdc1vemount (for example)?

Cheers, B
