add storage partition

add storage partition

Usage

stack add storage partition {scope} {options=string} [device=string] [mountpoint=string] [partid=string] [size=int] [type=string]

Description

Add a partition configuration to the database.

Arguments

• [scope]

  Zero or one argument. The argument is the scope: a valid os (e.g., 'redhat'), a valid appliance (e.g., 'compute') or a valid host (e.g., 'compute-0-0). No argument means the scope is 'global'.

Parameters

• [options=string]

• {device=string}

• {mountpoint=string}

• {partid=string}

• {size=int}

• {type=string}

  Type of partition E.g: ext4, ext3, xfs, raid, etc.

Examples

• stack add storage partition compute-0-0 device=sda mountpoint=/var size=50 type=ext4

  Creates a ext4 partition on device sda with mountpoints /var.

• stack add storage partition compute-0-2 device=sdc mountpoint=pv.01 size=0 type=lvm

  Creates a physical volume named pv.01 for lvm.

• stack add storage partition compute-0-2 mountpoint=volgrp01 device=pv.01 pv.02 pv.03 size=32768 type=volgroup

  Creates a volume group from 3 physical volumes i.e. pv.01, pv.02, pv.03. All these 3 physical volumes need to be created with the previous example. PV's need to be space separated.

• stack add storage partition compute-0-2 device=volgrp01 mountpoint=/banktools size=8192 type=xfs options=--name=banktools

  Created an xfs lvm partition of size 8192 on volgrp01. volgrp01 needs to be created with the previous example.
