    I've setup an iSCSI on a far far away system from my cPanel - Just trying to move some old accounts away from the main partition. However it doesn't like my /home2

    Disk /dev/sda: 96.6 GB, 96636764160 bytes
    255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 11748 cylinders
    Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
    Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 4096 bytes
    I/O size (minimum/optimal): 4096 bytes / 4096 bytes
    Disk identifier: 0x2cf2b006

    Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
    /dev/sda1 * 1 11749 94368768 7 HPFS/NTFS


    Error from WHM:
    New mount point for this account Sorry, there is only one usable partition detected on this machine matching “home2”

    Is this something that should be possible?

    Hello,

    Could you verify what's configured under the "Additional home directories matching the following value will also be used for new home directory creations. (Leaving this value blank disables the feature.)" option in "WHM >> Basic WebHost Manager Setup"?

    Thank you.

    Of course, I've set /home2.

    Hello,

    You can set that value back to the default of "home", as /home2 is automatically included as part of the home prefix. Let us know if that helps.

    Thank you.

    It would not let me edit, but I've done both /home2 and home2. Just for the giggles.

    I've tried it all. It doesn't allow me to transfer any accounts over to /home2.

    Could you open a support ticket using the link in my signature so we can take a closer look?

    Thank you.

    It started working on it's own today.
