I think the instructions there is referring to a separate disk partition (sdb1). If you don't have one, you can create a loopback storage device. Example:<BR>
truncate -s 5GB /srv/gluster-disk<BR>
mkfs.xfs -i size=512 /srv/gluster-disk<BR>

Hi all,<BR>
<BR>
I am trying to follow the instructions from the Quick Start guide, but I am running into problems when issuing the following command:<BR>
<BR>
mkfs.xfs -i size=512 /dev/sdb1<BR>
<BR>
/dev/sdb1: No such file or directory<BR>
<BR>
If I create the sdb1 folder in the /dev folder I get the following error when issuing the mkfs.xfs command<BR>
<BR>
mkfs.xfs: cannot open /dev/sdb1: Is a directory<BR>
<BR>
Any assistance would be most helpful.<BR>
<BR>
Thanks,<BR>
