Platespin scheduling target machine for provisioning fails

Last updated:

Scheduling target machine for provisioning fails with NPART Error: code=28 msg=Device sdb does not have enough free space. (No space left on device)

On the target VM, press: Alt F2      or   CTRL ALT F2. At the prompt press 0 to go to a shell. Once you are at the shell run the following commands:

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda  bs=512M count=1 conv=sync
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdb  bs=512M count=1 conv=sync
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdc  bs=512M count=1 conv=sync

Once that is complete please reboot the target, run the discovery again and let me know if you still are running into a problem partitioning the target volumes.
