[04:35] <maruq> hi, not sure if I'm in the right room, but seem to having an issue with Ubuntu AMIs + EBS volumes
[04:36] <maruq> I'm using AMIs based on Alestic ami-06ad526f, when I attach an EBS volume it doesn't show up
[04:37] <maruq> I went back to using that pure AMI (no mods), and same thing, no EBS volume
[04:37] <maruq> It shows up fine on the 10.10 AMI (ami-ccf405a5) though
[04:38] <maruq> also shows up fine on Amazon Linux
[04:39] <maruq> I'm using the command line tools (ec2-create-volume, ec2-attach-volume, ec2-describe-volume)
[04:40] <maruq> then logging in to the node, and trying to mount the volume (/dev/sdh) to my own dir (/mnt/redis)
[04:40] <maruq> anyone got any ideas?
[04:48] <flaccid> maruq: you should use the official canonical AMIs if not already
[04:48] <flaccid> i know they certainly work
[04:48] <flaccid> you'll find devices attached as /dev/xvd* not /dev/sd*
[04:49] <flaccid> after attachment check /proc/partitions, fdisk -l and ec2-describe-volumes
[04:49] <maruq> The ones on Alestic page say Canonical published?
[04:49] <maruq> oh, thanks, I'll check xvdh
[04:52] <maruq> seems to be there, thanks
[04:52] <flaccid> np
[04:52] <maruq> although AWS API seems to only take /dev/sd*, which in turn maps to /dev/xvd*
[04:52] <maruq> ?
[04:53] <flaccid> correct
[04:53] <maruq> little confusing there… oh well, problem solved
[04:53] <maruq> thanks
[04:53] <flaccid> its because aws forked xen
[04:54] <maruq> okay, although it seems to suggest on windows it'll take xvd*?
[04:54] <maruq> I don't know enough about xen though
[04:54] <flaccid> yes
[04:54] <flaccid> xen virtual device..
[04:55] <Udit> hi, I`m beginner to cloud OS. i have my minor project on cloud can u please suggest me some challenging and pratical project?
[04:56] <maruq> okay, well, it seems to work. thanks
[04:56] <flaccid> Udit: http://google.com/
[04:56] <flaccid> Udit: or just see topic and make UEC your project, good luck
[04:56] <flaccid> maruq: its because ubuntu would need to patch the kernel to support /dev/sd* on the instance..
[04:56] <Udit> thanks, whats UEC?
[04:57] <flaccid> Udit: follow and read the links in the topic
[04:57] <maruq> @flaccid: okay, that's cool. I'll just note it down
[04:57] <Udit> okay thanks
[04:57] <Udit> :)
[04:58] <maruq> @Udit: UEC = Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud (a sort of AWS EC2 on your own servers).
[04:58] <Udit> its like eye OS??
[04:59] <maruq> @Udit: Not sure what subject you're doing for, but sciences or maths usually have a lot of fun problems to solve
[04:59] <Udit> ok
[05:01] <Udit> do u noe abt the phovirtualbox
[05:01] <Udit> ?
[05:01] <flaccid> Udit: off-topic. goto #virtualbox
[05:01] <Udit> thanks
[05:01] <maruq> good luck
[05:02] <Udit> which network oi need to select fr #virtualbox
[05:03] <flaccid> this network
[05:03] <Udit> ok thanks again
[07:48] <codec> hmm.. i created an EMI with vmbuilder and am running it as m1.xlarge (20G disk on my UEC) but i only have a 10G sda in the instance?
[07:49] <codec> is this related to calling vmbuilder with --rootsize=10240?
[09:56] <kim0> codec: when you sudo fdisk -l .. do you see 20G
[10:09] <codec> no
[10:10] <kim0> hmm
[10:10] <kim0> wait around someone should hopefully be able to help
