Expected Behavior

When reloading a drive partition it would be nice to have the Logical Volume created the partition marked as growable.
https://softlayer.github.io/python/reloadcustompartition/

During first provisioning of a device from the portal it allows me to mark a partition with LVM, but reloads via portal or API do not have this option.

raid-config-lvm-flag

Actual Behavior

I can reload/repartition the drive, but I need to manually convert the standard partition to a Logical Volume with in the OS. I would seem to be the a flag for LVM is missing for this API to configure the LVM

Overview
The SoftLayer_Hardware_Component_Partition
Type: integer
grow
A flag indicating if a partition is the grow partition. The grow partition will grow to fill all remaining space on a disk. There can only be one.
Type: integer
hardwareComponentId

Primary Disk Partitions
Select a partition template to use for the first disk. The partition templates available will depend on the OS selected and the disk type assigned.

Partition Template:
/10 GB
/swap02 GB
/boot0.25 GB
***/disk0Grow 1 GB . why does this get created as a Logical Volume

Advanced Storage Groups and Partitions
Storage groups are logical volumes which can span multiple drives on a disk controller. ***
