After the launch with blkid view but we can not see sub-district, if I partition divided four each for the 1T, then the default will be / dev / vdb1 / dev / vdb2 / dev / vdb3 / dev / vdb4 partition, we can only see / dev / vdb1 such a. In fact, it is not formatted, let's format.

 -t ext4 the mkfs / dev / vdb1
 the mkfs -t ext4 / dev / vdb2
 the mkfs -t ext4 / dev / vdb3
 the mkfs -t ext4 / dev / vdb4
