Here is a step by step tutorial:

1. Install/reinstall the server with "Custom installation" and edit the size of the partions:

Code

/= 100000 MB
SWAP = 4500 MB
/home = Space remaining


2. Click on "Next" and wait till the server is installed

3. Log in via SSH as root

4. Create a new volume grop. Use this commands:

Code

umount /home
pvcreate /dev/md3
vgcreate vg /dev/md3


If you see this: WARNING: ext4 signature detected on /dev/md3 at offset 1080. Wipe it? [y/n]: (type 'y' for Yes)

Notice: md3 is just an example. You have to check the name of the free mounted file system which will be used for the 'Storage' in Virtualizor. It could be 'sd*, md*, etc. deppending on your OS

5. Check if the volume group exist with:

Code

vgdisplay


or

Code

vgdisplay -A


Now your new volume group is called 'vg' and the path should be: '/dev/vg' (will be used in Virtualizor by adding the storage later).

6. Edit the '/etc/fstab' with an editor like 'nano' and comment the line with an '#':

Code

dev/md3 /home


like this:

Code

#/dev/md3 /home


6. Reboot the server with the command:

Code

reboot


7. Now go to the Vizrualizor admin page, choose 'Storage > Add Storage

Under 'Storage Path' put the path to the created volume group like this: /dev/md3 (md3 is just an example, it might be something else...)

8. Save and maybe reboot the server again

Now you have added a new storage to Virtualizor which can be used by creating your new VPSs.

Hi,

Sir we have the guide on our documnetation :
http://virtualizor.com/wiki/Add_New_Storage

Sorry for the inconvenience caused.

We asks users to open ticket because many users so not perform the server installation properly even though we have mentioned the partition schema on our guide.
So once we check it we can install Virtualizor on users server to avoid any mistakes made by users.

Let us know for further information.

Hi,

Sir it is mentioned that remaining all space should be for storage.
http://virtualizor.com/wiki/Install_KVM#Partition_Scheme

So if you keep all the storage to /home at the time of server installtion you will need the command to umount and remove entry from fstab.

Let us know for further information.
