Make sure have the second disk /dev/sdb, no partition on this disk. 2. Format this disk with type ext3. 3. Add a new storage pool by vitr-manager GUI choose type "disk:Pysical Disk Device" 4. Click Forward, choose "/dev/sdb" for Source Path. 5. Click Finish button.

I assume this is a libvirt issue, reassigning
I can't reproduce on f23, so closing
