[Level 3] Create LVM in Ubuntu.

Install LVM (Logical Volume Management) in Ubuntu.

1. Install LVM with apt-get
# apt-get -y install lvm2

[Ref: http://www.debuntu.org/how-to-install-ubuntu-over-lvm-filesystem]
$ sudo mke2fs -j /dev/sda2
$ sudo pvcreate /dev/sda3 #create a physical volume on /dev/sda3
Physical volume "/dev/sda3" successfully created
$ sudo vgcreate lvmvolume /dev/sda3 #create a volume group named lvmvolume using /dev/sda3 physical volume
Volume group "lvmvolume" successfully created
$ sudo lvcreate -n root -L 5G lvmvolume #create a logical volume of 5G named "root" in lvmvolume
Logical volume "root" created
$ sudo lvcreate -n home -L 10G lvmvolume #create a logical volume of 10G named "home" in lvmvolume
Logical volume "home" created
$ sudo lvcreate -n swap -L 2G lvmvolume #create a logical volume of 2G named "swap" in lvmvolume
Logical volume "swap" created
$ sudo mkfs -j /dev/lvmvolume/root -L root #format root as ext3
$ sudo mkfs -j /dev/lvmvolume/home -L home #format home as ext3
$ sudo mkswap -L swap /dev/lvmvolume/swap #format swap as swap filesystem, labelled swap


Wish this helps.

[Level 1] Rar tool for Solaris.

Sometimes we will got a rar compressed file from our friends, but there is no default tool in OpenSolaris to decompress the rar filess. We can got a Solaris Intel version from rarlab . The steps as the following: 1. down load the rar tools from rarlab. http://www.rarlab.com/rar_add.htm 2. uncompressed the source. # gunzip ./unrar-sol-intel.gz 3. move it to the location you used to. # mv /unrar-sol-intel.gz /usr/bin/unrar 4. try to decomprss # unrar x ./test.rar Wish this helps. regards, Stanley Huang

[Level 2] iif in Python

If you want to implement iif in Python, please refer to the following sample code: #!/bin/env python def iif(b): return 'It\'s True' if b else 'It\'s False' print iif(True) print iif(False) And the following sample, guess what will you get! #!/bin/env python b = True print 'b: %s' % 'Ture' if b else 'False' b = False print 'b: %s' % 'Ture' if b else 'False' Result: $ ./iif.py b: Ture False The second result is "False", not "b: False". Why??? Because the prededence of string concatenation is higher than if. Therefore you need to use () to make it correct. #!/bin/env python b = True print 'b: %s' % 'Ture' if b else 'False' b = False print 'b: %s' % ('Ture' if b else 'False') Wish this helps. regards, Stanley Huang
