Extending Xen iSCSI backend storage devices by adding another iSCSI LUN
June 3rd, 2008 • Related • Filed Under
I needed to add more storage space on the /home directory of a Xen guest running on a RHEL5 system. I investigated extending its LUN on the NetApp Filer and then tried running pvresize to see if the Xen guest would recognise the new size. No luck. In the end, i created another iSCSI LUN, mapped it to the Xen host, configured the Xen guest to see the new LUN and let LVM know it had another physical disk to play with. This is how i did it.
