<p><font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Your suggestion worked
Instead of extending the disks, we added the third IDE disk with
about 500 GB, created the required partitions, mount points and
just synchronised the date from physical server to all these
mount points using DD command. Post the completion of
synchronization process, we modified the fstab and the VM went
live. <br>
</font></p>
<p>Now all well.</p>
<p>Thanks for your suggestion and WISH YOU & THE LIST A VERY
HAPPY NEW YEAR.<br>

you can make this two disks larger, make more extended
partitions on them and move partitions from disks 3 and 4 to
this two and modify fstab accordingly?<br>
Or if you don't need separate mount points you can extend space
on / and move data to / filesystem tree and remove fstab
entries,<br>
and use only 1 virtual disk, if it's acceptable.<br>
All this can be done from modern OS, you can connect all 4 disks
via virtio drivers, connect 5th disk, move data to it, install
fedora5 bootloader,<br>
modify fstab and than reattach to original vm via IDE.<br>

We have converted a very old fedora 5 server to run on
oVirt. However, since the Fedora 5 does not have virtio
drivers, or virtio-scsi drivers, the disks are connected
to virtual IDE interface. The problem here is on a
single IDE interface, we cannot connect more than 2
disks. But the old converted server had 4 disks on 2 IDE
controllers. <br>
First question is can we add one more virtual IDE
Controller to the VM? If yes, please share the
procedure. Or whether any one can share the proper
virtio or virtio scsi for fedora 5 OS drivers so that we
can get other two inactive disks working.<br>
Unfortunately we cannot upgrade from Fedora 5 at the
moment. <br>
Await your inputs.<br>
