Hi, If you dont have any VPSs on your server then you can follow these steps to utilize all the free space available in one or more disks on your server for creating VPSs : You will first need to move your contents (mainly templates) from /vz/ directory to a temporary location (other than /vz). You will need to create a Volume Group consisting of /dev/vda and /dev/vdb, so now your VG will have the entire free disk space available on your server. Now you can create LV from that VG utilizing all the space from the VG as shown in the guide below : https://www.centos.org/docs/5/html/Cluster_Logical_Volume_Manager/LV_create.html After the LV is created you can mount it on "/vz" and then move the /vz contents back. thank you very much, when I try go vgcreate i get the errors like below ---------------------------------------------------------- sudo vgcreate cent /dev/vda1 /dev/vdb1 Can't open /dev/vda1 exclusively. Mounted filesystem? Unable to add physical volume '/dev/vda1' to volume group 'cent' ------------------------------------------------------------ here is my fdisk ------------------------------------------------------ sudo fdisk -l Disk /dev/vda: 10.7 GB, 10737418240 bytes 11 heads, 20 sectors/track, 95325 cylinders Units = cylinders of 220 * 512 = 112640 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disk identifier: 0x0003f144 Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/vda1 * 10 95326 10484736 83 Linux Disk /dev/vdb: 10.7 GB, 10737418240 bytes 16 heads, 63 sectors/track, 20805 cylinders Units = cylinders of 1008 * 512 = 516096 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disk identifier: 0xcee2fdce Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/vdb1 1 20805 10485688+ 8e Linux LVM --------------------------------------------------------------- (as you see i did some test on vdb1, it can remove and re-partition) i can always re-install vps, i don't need to back up system. please guide me make the 2 disks (in this example, 10gb+10gb to make 20gb available in virtualizor on OVH servers) it is a sandbox server, not doing virtualizor on 10 gb. i just want to see if this is possible so i can move on to the project. Thank you so much.
