I added a few drives and expanded my array using Dell's OpenManage utility. I was able to scan the device to show the correct size of /dev/sda. This is on a CentOS 6 system. I went into parted and was prompted to fix the space. Now that is showing up correctly. The one thing I noticed is that the second partition doesn't display a file system type. I don't know how the kickstart does this but my question is, if I add a new partition, I have to provide a file system type to parted. Is this going to throw anything off when I add /dev/sda3 to the existing LVM VolGroup00?
Thanks
