1. Check the managed system properties window to ensure that enough I/O slots are available to activate the partition.
2. If there are not enough I/O slots available, create a new profile or modify the existing profile with the available resources. Then activate the partition.
3. If the partition must be activated at any cost, deactivate any running partition that is using the resource and then activate the partition.
Note: If you must activate the partition and you have tried unsuccessfully to recover using the above action, edit the profile for the partition you are activating and remove all slots that are associated with the identified slot's PHB. See the PCI Adapter Placement Reference, order number SA38-0538 for information on PHB slot associations.
4. If the problem persists, contact your service provider.

dtc_setup_vps_disk

dtc_setup_vps_disks(8)					      System Manager's Manual					    dtc_setup_vps_disks(8)

NAME

       dtc_setup_disk - setup LVM disks for using it as a VM

SYNOPSIS

       dtc_setup_vps_disk.sh VPS_NUMBER HDD_SIZE SWAP_SIZE [ lvm|loopback ]

DESCRIPTION

       dtc_setup_vps_disk.sh This shell script is a part of the dtc-xen package that is to be used by the dtc panel to manage a Xen VPS server.

       This script is used to create partitions to be used by a VPS later on.  It will create a normal partition that will be used as a root disk,
       and a swap partition.

       dtc_setup_disk is to be used by the dtc-xen SOAP server, but can also be used as a standalone userland tool.

       If the partition(s) exists, then this script will delete it/them first.

OPTIONS

       VPS_NUMBER has to be a number between 01 and 19. Let's say the number is 16, and that dtc-xen is configured to use the volume group  called
       lvm1, then this script will create /dev/lvm1/xen16 and /dev/lvm1/xen16swap.

       HDD_SIZE Size in MB of the VPS partition to create.

       SWAP_SIZE  Size in MB of the VPS swap partition to create. If the dtc-xen SOAP server is used to create the VPS, then it will create a swap
       partition of the exact same size as the memory.

       IMAGE_TYPE This parameter can have 2 values: either lvm or loopback. If ommited, then lvm is used. If lvm is used, then	this  script  will
       create a partition using lvmcreate, otherwise it will create an image file. Both will later be used for the VPS.

EXAMPLE

       dtc_setup_vps_disk 04 15360 256 lvm

       This will create 2 LVM partition to be used by the VPS named xen04, the first one being a root partition of 15 GB, and the second one being
       a swap partition of 256 MB.

VERSION

       This documentation describes dtc_setup_vps_disk version 0.3.15.	See http://www.gplhost.com/software-dtc-xen.html for updates.
