How can I create a file System in SUSE

[Pakito]

Hello,

Anybody know how can I create a file system in SUSE Linux, I have a Vdisk in a MSA of 13.9TB and my client needs a volume of 12 TB, the server is direct attach to both controllers of the MSA, so I don´t know if I need something like MPIO and I don't know how build a file system with this OS.

Hi Pakito,

If you see more than one path for the LUN, you should use MPIO.

Once this is setup you will see 2 or more paths to the LUN and 1 meta-device that you will use to create the FS.

Ok, Now I´m working with the server, and also I Map a Volume of 2TB, but in the server I only see the internal disks, but the disk of the P200 does´t appear when I send the comman fdisk -l, and also when I try to install the HPDM Multipath the installation program send me this error "The Operating System Version Could not be determinated"

Help me......

Which MSA model (to see if SAS/FC/iSCSI)?
Which server model?
Which cards in the server that are connected to the MSA?
