Hello,
I am being introduced to AWS and finding it to be fun learning, but also challenging (Thus my post).
I have a question about allocating disk space and creating filesystems when starting aws CentOS instances.
What I'm used to is I have a kickstart server (For hardware installs). And I was hoping I could use some of that knowledge and apply it to aws instances.
Here is my allocation for filesystems on the hardware kickstart installs for CentOS7:
Code:
logvol swap --fstype swap --name=swap --vgname=SYSTEM --size=16384
logvol / --fstype xfs --name=root --vgname=SYSTEM --size=1024
logvol /usr --fstype xfs --name=usr --vgname=SYSTEM --size=3072
logvol /var --fstype xfs --name=var --vgname=SYSTEM --size=1024
logvol /tmp --fstype xfs --name=tmp --vgname=SYSTEM --size=1024
logvol /home --fstype xfs --name=home --vgname=SYSTEM --size=1024
logvol /opt --fstype xfs --name=opt --vgname=SYSTEM --size=1024
When it comes to amazon aws I have yet to find anywhere in the tools to implement this info to allocate space and create file systems.
My end goal is to be able to start up aws instances on CentOS7 with the above filesystem. Something tells me I am thinking about this the wrong way because despite scouring google for answers I am not able to find something to work with.
So any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you. Keith
