Configure Storage

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

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.

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.
