Add two virtual disk into VM, 100GB for both.

As the screen shows, open Internet browser, go to https://192.168.1.180:446/

 

Be advice, the root account could only use to manage this VM's configuration, if you need to manage remote storage device, input: user name: 'openfiler' and Password: 'password'

(strongly recommend that change the password ASAP!)

The first step we should do is find the physical HD, So switch to volumes tab.

 

At the right of the page, click 'block devices'.

 

As we see, /dev/sda was the system disk, /dev/sdb and /dev/sdc is the disk we just added, now we gona set sdb and sdc to a new Volume group, click /dev/sdb.

 

Drop down the page, at this case we use the whole 100GB as a physical volume, so we just click 'create'

 

Repeat the previous step, set sdc to physical volume.

Now click 'manage volumes', input a name for the volume group and select both physical volume, click 'Add volume group'.

 

Done : )
