10. Rescan the SCSI host on host2 to discover the new drives:
echo “- - -“ | sudo tee /sys/class/scsi_host/host2/scan
The new drives should now show up in your /sys/bus/scsi/devices directory as 2:X:X:0, where X:X matches the Virtual
Device Node of the drives you just created.
Typing the command ls –l /dev/sd* now produces an output with the last line showing the new drives as sdd and sde.
11. Using the pvcreate command, create a physical volume label out of the virtual disk. List each disk that will be used in the
volume, separated by a space.
sudo pvcreate /dev/sdd /dev/sde
12. Create a volume group and give it a name that references the datastore the physical drives are on, with an incremented
number. List every physical volume that you just created, separated by a space. If you already have volume groups on the
server, use the vgcreate command to determine the next increment number:
sudo vgcreate ExacqStorageServer01 /dev/sdd /dev/sde
