This page explains the process of configuring disks and volume configuration after a Tranzman Appliance installation.


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).


The Volumes page should list the disk added for the staging. e.g. sdb in this case. Select the disk with Overwrite existing data on disks and click on Commit.

The Committ should redirect you to the Network page for Network Configuration.
