I created an Azure Medium instance Windows 2012 Server and I'm having a problem striping together multiple Azure data disks into a single volume using the Server Manager tool.
In Azure I provisioned the medium instance and then created 4 data disks of 60GB each. I then rdp'ed into the server and inside Server Manager under File and Storage Services\Volumes I saw in the Disks section my 4 data disks listed under the C:\ and D:\ drives that come with this instance. I initialized my 4 data disks (later I also tried NOT initializing them) but when I clicked on "Storage Pools" in the nav bar under the Virtual Disk section I only saw 1 of my data disks.
I saw no way to add any of the other 3 data disks into my Storage Pool and then of course into the subsequent Virtual Disk. This problem limits me to just one data disk in my Virtual Disk. I have tried this many different times and the result is always the same.
Does anyone know what can be causing this or have steps to do the same thing I'm trying to do?
Thanks
