Issue

  • Partitions show correctly in the proposed output. Example:
    [::*> storage disk create-partition -source-disk 4.10.20 -target-disk 4.10.23]
    Warning: Disk "4.10.23" will be partitioned as follows:
    Usable Container Container
    Partition Size Type Name Owner
    ------------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ----------
    4.10.23.P1 1.69TB spare Pool0
    4.10.23.P2 1.69TB spare Pool0
    4.10.23.P3 107.7GB spare Pool0
    Do you want to continue? {y|n}: y
    Disk "4.10.23" is now partitioned.

  • However after confirming and having the disk become partitioned, the partitions show incorrect size:
    [::*> disk partition show -owner-node-name xxxxxxxxxxxx]
    Usable Container Container
    Partition Size Type Name Owner
    ------------------------- ------- ------------- ----------------- -----------------
    ........
    4.10.23.P1 1.72TB spare Pool0
    4.10.23.P2 1.72TB spare Pool0
    4.10.23.P3 61.56GB spare Pool0
