| − | After installation, the appliance will most likely only have one disk '''"sda"''' so we need to add more disks / volumes as stated in the '''"Planning and Sizing"''' section. This section assumes that a Tranzman Virtual Appliance is being used. | + | |
| | + | After installation of OS on to the boot disk(local/SAN) now its time to partition the disk added for transient data( temporary staging of converted images). |

| − | ===Step 1===
| |
| − | Add 5 extra Hard Disks to the VA under the VMWare host. For recomended sizes please refer to '''Step 14''' on section [[Install VA]].

| − | ===Step 2===
| |
| − | Make sure that the system can see the new disks.
