Hi Gorka,

Thanks for the information. one more thing I need to know, how we get the storage usage of object store (swift). suppose at the time of installation through packstack we define the swift_storage 20G, if any other person wants to know how much space is used in swift, then how we can get the information how much space is available in the object storage size.

Hi Salman,

You don't mention the cinder driver or anything, so I'm going to assume
you are using the LVM driver with default's cinder-volumes VG (Volume
Group) on the bare disk (no partition).

If that's the case, you'll need an additional disk (or loopback device),
create a PV (Physical Volume) on it, and add it to the cinder-volumes
VG.

Fortunately the LVM command that extends a VG can do the PV creation
automatically, so if for example you have added /dev/sdc to your system
and you want to use it for Cinder volumes you can:

- First check the current status of the VG:

$ sudo vgs

- Add the device:

$ sudo vgextend cinder-volumes /dev/sdc --debug

- Confirm the VG has grown:

$ sudo vgs

Cheers,
Gorka.
