hi i have a dedicated server with citrix xen center virtualization in it. on one of the vps which is centos linux with cpanel the hdd usage is causing high io and load so i decided to add a new hard disc to server and move some hosts to the new hdd.
after adding hdd to the dedicated server , i have added a new storage to linux.
i can view the new virtual hards in the ssh of that linux vps using fdisk -l. but when i want to mount the new partitions cpanel says
i have already used this feature of cpanel and that detected the hdd and mounted it easily but this time i have no luck.
here is the output of fdisk -l :
i added a third virtual hdd to this vps , formated it using either , lvm , linux , ext3 types but in none of those cases cpanel could detect new partition 
this is in the case that in the "Show Current Disk Usage" of whm
it donot show partitions in "Current Disk Usage Information" but it shows them in the "IO Statistics"
what do you suggest me to do ?
also i have manually mounted my hdd according to this tutorial,
http://www.walkernews.net/2007/07/02...-in-3-minutes/
then df -h shows the hdd space ,
but again when i want to move some hosts to new hdd with "rearrange accounts" cpanel says
"sorry there is only 1 drive in this machine"
also strange thing in this case is that i have set /home2 for default dir of new hosts in cpanel configuration. it creates new host in the new hdd correctly and in the list of accounts , it shows /home2 for that new hosts . but again when i use rearrange accounts on that new host , cpanel do not see the home2 and report the error of "sorry there is only 1 drive in this machine" !!
so i am manually moving the hosts from the /home to /home2 and create new hosts for that users.
also settings in /etc/fstab is correct because i have rebooted the server and after coming up it automatically mounted /home2 . so rebooting cpanel couldnt solve the issue either.
