[Gluster-users] Adding storage to an existing server.

[Bala.JA]

Hi,

Format disk functionality is available in Server Manager.  Please check it.  If 
100GB disk was added after Gluster Platform installation, its required to 
partition the disk by hand (Its a bug in 3.0.X releases).  In system console, 
you can run

parted -s <disk> mklabel gpt
parted -s <disk> mkpart primary ext3 0 100%

This will make appear the disk in Server Manager.

Thanks,

Regards,
Bala
