15 managing disk - creating filesystem mkfs

[root@svn ~]# cat /proc/partitions 
major minor  #blocks  name

    8        0   31457280 sda
   8        1    1048576 sda1
   8        2   19921920 sda2
   8       16    5242880 sdb
   8       17     102400 sdb1
  11        0    8086528 sr0
 253        0   17821696 dm-0
 253        1    2097152 dm-1


at this point partition created sdb1 is empty, meaning we cannot do anything with it.
to do something with it, we need to create FS on it.

[root@svn ~]# mkfs
mkfs         mkfs.cramfs  mkfs.ext3    mkfs.fat     mkfs.msdos   mkfs.xfs
mkfs.btrfs   mkfs.ext2    mkfs.ext4    mkfs.minix   mkfs.vfat

for working with large file size it makes sense to use large block size (default is 512 byte)

[root@svn ~]# mkfs.xfs --help
mkfs.xfs: invalid option -- '-'
unknown option -- 
Usage: mkfs.xfs
/* blocksize */ [-b log=n|size=num]

/* inode size */ [-i log=n|perblock=n|size=num,maxpct=n,attr=0|1|2,
   projid32bit=0|1]
/* label */ [-L label (maximum 12 characters)]

tomcat catalina coyote jasper cluster

Tomcat Component are Catalina Coyote Jasper Cluster Catalina :  Catalina is the name of the servlet container of Apache Tomcat since version 4.x. Tomcat implements Sun Microsystems' specifications for servlet and JavaServer Pages (JSP), which are important Java-based Web technologies. Tomcat's servlet container was redesigned as Catalina in Tomcat version 4.x. other components of the Tomcat engine are: Tomcat Jasper which converts the code portions within JavaServer Pages into servlets and pass them to Catalina to process. Tomcat Coyote which is an HTTP connector based on HTTP/1.1 specifications that receives and transmits web requests to the Tomcat engine by listening to a TCP/IP port and returns requests back to the requesting client. Coyote :  The Coyote JK Connector element represents a Connector component that communicates with a web connector via the JK protocol (also known as the AJP protocol). This is used for cases where you wish to invisibly integr

NFS mount add in fstab _netdev instead of default | firewall-cmd --list-all

By OK -
Redhat recommends us to add  _netdev  option for NFS file system in /etc/fstab. So that they can be mounted after starting the networking service. Alternative ways to refer to partitions: Label : LABEL=label Network ID Samba : //server/share NFS : server:/share SSHFS : sshfs#user@server:/share Device : /dev/sdxy (not recommended) Example #1 //192.168.1.134/share_name /mnt/share_name cifs username=server_user,password=server_password,_netdev 0 0 ^ Path to your share ^ Mountpoint ^ Username ^ Password ^ See note A Note A: The  _netdev  options makes sure the mount is only attempted AFTER a network connection has been established. Example #2 10.10.10.1:/vol1/fs1 /data nfs defaults,_netdev 0 0 ============================ [root@localhost ~]# firewall-cmd --list-all public   target: default   icmp-block-inversion: no   interfaces:   sources:   services: dhcpv6-client high-availability ssh   ports:   protocols:   masquera
