libvirt users - Aug 2011 - pool assumed to have 512B sector

Hi,
When creating a dedicated storage pool on a FC attached storage with sector 
size of 4096B and size of 2TB, the storage pool is created but reported as 1/8 
of it's size, the same follows for any volume created in the same storage 
pool:
            

#  virsh pool-info guest_images_disk
Name:           guest_images_disk
UUID:           30247222-c1fb-8749-b833-a73782198d26
State:          running
Persistent:     yes
Autostart:      yes
Capacity:       256.00 GB
Allocation:     122.07 MB
Available:      255.88 GB

What type of pool have you created. You mention FC, which makes me think
you have a SCSI pool type, but then I would expect 'Available' to always
be zero, so I guess it must be a different pool type. Can you show the
pool XML, and also the XML for one of the volumes within it.
