      12 1.5TB harddrives for cache disks.

    Description

      Using 1.5TB harddrives as cache disks results in ATS only using 512GBs of the disk. The disks are configured in RAW mode with no partition information.

      storage.config is setup like this,

      /dev/sda
      /dev/sdb
      /dev/sde
      /dev/sdf
      /dev/sdh
      /dev/sdi
      /dev/sdj
      /dev/sdk
      /dev/sdl
      /dev/sdm
      /dev/sdn
      /dev/sdo

      fdisk -l /dev/sdo

      Disk /dev/sdo: 1500.3 GB, 1500301910016 bytes
      255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 182401 cylinders
      Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
      Disk identifier: 0x00000000

      Partitioning a disk into 3 512G partition and adding then to storage.config will make ATS use the entire 1.5TBs of space.
