Centos5.6 6 6 TB Mount Space

I recently deployed a storage device with 6 TB of storage space and was ready to partition and format large-capacity storage.
Since MBR partitions support a maximum capacity of only 2 TB, gpt partitions are required if the maximum capacity is 2 TB.

First, use the parted command to convert the hard disk to a gpt partition.
----------------------
[Root @ ~] # Parted/dev/sdb
GNU parted1.8
Using/dev/sdb
Welcome to GNU Parted! Type 'help' to view a list of commands.
(Parted)

Convert from MBR to GPT Disk
--------------------------------------
(Parted) mklabel gpt
Warning: The existing disk label on/dev/sdb will be destroyed and all data on this disk will be lost. Do you want to continue?
Yes/No? Yes
(Parted)

Set the type and size of the partition you want to create (based on the actual situation) 0,-1 indicates the start and end capacity, the difference is the partition capacity, the Unit is M mkpart primary 0-1, indicating dividing all capacity
--------------------------------------

(Parted) mkpart primary 0-1
Warning: The resulting partition is not properly aligned for best performance.
Ignore/Cancel? Ignore

Information: You may need to update/etc/fstab.

After partitioning, format and mount the hard disk.

This is a success!
