Why do I see the error "Volume Group block size error, please check your Volume Group configuration, Supported block size is 512 bytes" when adding a new storage domain or using a RHEV-H / RHEL 6.2 based host with a 2.2 storage domain?
Issue
- While trying to create a block (Fiber Channel or iSCSI) storage domain in RHEV-M 3.0, we see the following error message reported.
