how to add new disk to oracle VM?

How to add new/more disk to Oracle VM?

I have server with 400GB internal disk. I have installed oracle vm 2.2 on this server (oravmserver).

I created two virtual machines (test1 and test2 ) with 100 gb each. Now I added 1tb disk to oravmserver using iscsi. I want to create 500gb disk for virtual machines test1 and test2.

when i try to create disk with 500GB on test1, I get error message ovm-4006 max disk size can be 200GB.

I tried few things like creating new repository and then create new disk of size 500GB and I get same error message.

However, I am able to create shared virtual disk of 500GB? I haven't read much about using shared disk. all I read is shared disk is used for HA. I am not using HA or have no plans of using HA.

How do i add more disk to virtual machines test1 and test2?

thanks
