Hi Thanks for all who helped me to solve the problem. I have used Parted and made the disk of 3.2 TB. Later I made the ext3 file system with mkfs -t ext3 /dev/sda1. Thanks once again for the suggestions and support Rajeev -----Original Message----- From: centos-bounces at centos.org [mailto:centos-bounces at centos.org] On Behalf Of Karanbir Singh Sent: Saturday, August 19, 2006 2:35 AM To: CentOS mailing list Subject: Re: [CentOS] FW: FDISK Help please in Centos 4.3 Rajeev R Veedu wrote: > Is it possible to create one raid volume of 3.3 TB (9550SX-8lp X > WD5000YS - 8nos) and create a file system with ext3?

But when I say fdisk /dev/sda it list full size of 3.3 TB. > But I can not create partitions more than 1.24TB. > one point that hasent been brought up in this thread, and I'd like to mention it here, is that fdisk is actually deprecated, use parted instead, and as Peter has pointed out already, you need a gpt partition table type. Also, since its been ref'd to - 3ware provides its own means of supporting large volume blocks - carving. -- Karanbir Singh : http://www.karan.org/ : 2522219 at icq _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS at centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
