Hi,
I want to increase the Disk Size of my LXC Container, but i cant go higher than 131072. How can i get around that or increase that?

Kind Regards, Luca

What kind of storage is "Daten"? Perhaps the limitation comes from there.

 

[wetterhahn]

"Daten" is a 5.5 TB LVM

 

[BobhWasatch]

So you plan to put 200 TiB (200,000 * 1 GiB = 200 TiB) on a 5.5 TiB storage? How's that supposed to work?

 

[wetterhahn]

Oh, i didnt know that its working like this, i want 2 TiB, what do i have to write in there?

 

[BobhWasatch]

1 TB = 1000 GB. So 2 TB = 2000 GB. Therefore you should write 2000. And maybe learn Si prefixes.

 

[wetterhahn]

oh true, i was with mb the whole time, of course its that, thank you for your help

Nah, he wants 2 TiB - so put in 2048, not 2000. Pretty significant difference in GB/GiB.
