CentOS 7.2新增物理磁盘以及使用parted对齐分区以得到最优性能

    刚开始使用fdisk 进行添加磁盘，添加了半天都加不上去，后来发现fdisk只能处理2T以下的磁盘，大于2T以上的磁盘需要使用parted进行分区。
    There are two common problems when creating partitions in Linux on big storage arrays. The first is easy, and the warning message from fdisk is a bit of a giveaway:

WARNING: The size of this disk is 8.0 TB (7970004230144 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 answer: use parted. Don’t have it? 
    Install it!The second problem is this warning from parted:

(parted) mklabel gpt
(parted) mkpart primary 0 100%
Warning: The resulting partition is not properly aligned for best performance.
Ignore/Cancel?

   … and no matter what combination of numbers you use,
