Linux 磁盘分区大于2T

 

Linux机器磁盘分区，如果分区大于2T，使用 fdisk /dev/xxx 划分后的分区可能会小于等于2T。

• fdisk is not an option

root@turtle:~# fdisk /dev/sdb
Device contains neither a valid DOS partition table, nor Sun, SGI or OSF disklabel
Building a new DOS disklabel with disk identifier 0xbe043269.
Changes will remain in memory only, until you decide to write them.
After that, of course, the previous content won't be recoverable.

Warning: invalid flag 0x0000 of partition table 4 will be corrected by w(rite)

WARNING: The size of this disk is 3.0 TB (3000592982016 bytes).
DOS partition table format can not be used on drives for volumes
larger than (2199023255040 bytes) for 512-byte sectors. Use parted(1) and GUID
partition table format (GPT).


The device presents a logical sector size that is smaller than
the physical sector size. Aligning to a physical sector (or optimal
I/O) size boundary is recommended, or performance may be impacted.

Command (m for help): q

It tells us to use parted with GPT format instead.

• parted with gpt label

   Create a partition using GPT format. I’ve chosen to use just 1 large partition that uses the whole disk.

root@turtle:~# parted /dev/sdb

Information: You may need to update /etc/fstab.

• Verify that the new partition appears as a device.

root@turtle:~# ls /dev/sd*
/dev/sda  /dev/sda1  /dev/sda2  /dev/sda5  /dev/sdb  /dev/sdb1

The new partition sdb1 has appeared.

• Format the partition

  I’m using the ext3 file system. Use mkfs to format the drive.

• Mount or add to /etc/fstab

root@turtle:~# mount /dev/sdb1  /mnt/sdb1/

  The drive is now accessible via /mnt/sdb1. You can also add the partitions to fstab.
