hi,

this is a virtual and I already have 2 hdd, can I add the 3er hdd?

thanks.

[Uldis (UD)]

yes you can add up to 8 HDDs
Honestly it is not my preffered way to do EVE hDD from many HDDs..but plan one nice and big
like 1Tb for virtual or 4Tb bare

[tcpip]

I just did add the 3 hdd and know I get the error
/dev/mapper/eve--ng-vg-root does not exist

[Uldis (UD)]

I guess its time for full reinstall..
because you can add next HDD if at least min 2% left free on existing hdd..
eve has no space to complete this opertaion

Adbice do backup now, and install new nice EVE

thanks for the update, i did not have any backup

[Uldis (UD)]

but you still have cli access to eve?

then you can backup it
Procedure to Backup content of EVE-PRO

For backup EVE content copy following folders:

/opt/unetlab/addons/

/opt/unetlab/tmp/

/opt/unetlab/labs/

I no longer have ssh access.
