Here are some things I found interesting this week:

Day-0 Day-1 Day-2 Definitions

day-0: customized installation
day-1: customization performed only once after installing a cluster,
day-2: tasks performed multiple times during the life of a cluster

Thanks to a Red Hat colleague for this wonderful definition.

sfdisk tips

I used sfdisk in a PowerVM project. I found these commands helpful

# sfdisk --json /dev/mapper/mpatha
{
   "partitiontable": {
      "label": "dos",
      "id": "0x14fc63d2",
      "device": "/dev/mapper/mpatha",
      "unit": "sectors",
      "partitions": [
         {"node": "/dev/mapper/mpatha1", "start": 2048, "size": 8192, "type": "41", "bootable": true},
         {"node": "/dev/mapper/mpatha2", "start": 10240, "size": 251647967, "type": "83"}
      ]
   }
}

# sfdisk --dump /dev/mapper/mpatha
label: dos
label-id: 0x14fc63d2
device: /dev/mapper/mpatha
unit: sectors

/dev/mapper/mpatha1 : start=        2048, size=        8192, type=41, bootable
/dev/mapper/mpatha2 : start=       10240, size=   251647967, type=83
