Open Stack

Greetings, Adam,

Issues possible with partitions larger than 16 TB, since we use 32-bit Ext4
file system in several places.

Fuel partition manager formats disk drives to GPT partitioning scheme only
and explicitly set drive geometry to 1 TB for disks equal or larger than
1Tb.
It allows to use GRUB 0.97 with CentOS 6.x over the large disks.

Kind regards,
Miroslav Anashkin
