HDD2 Problem

[Lanuser]

Hello everyone,
I followed instructions:

• Create a big single partition (sdb1)

fdisk /dev/sdb

• Create the physical volume:

pvcreate /dev/sdb1
Physical volume "/dev/sdb1" successfully created

• Create the volume group 'vmdisks' (just choose a unique name):

vgcreate vmdisks /dev/sdb1
Volume group "vmdisks" successfully createdAnd finally: Add the LVM Group to the storage list via the web interface.





What have I done wrong here?

Thanks

Nothing, LVM is good to store VM images, but you cannot store files there (no file system).

Storage model is still the same as in 1.7, so I don't really get the question.

I am sorry! I can see where you got confused.

In the previous version of proxmox I was able setup on 2nd HDD OpenVZ or KVM.

And right now 2ND HDD for use KVM only.

Is it possible setup 2ND HDD for KVM and OpenVZ ?

Also is it possible store ISO images on the 2nd hard drive same as primary hard drive?

Thank you.

That is still possible, the same way you have done it with 1.7?
