Questions & Clarifications​

  1. You must install the system-storage-manager package on your assignment VM.
  2. The root user on your c7host must also be able to ssh to your assignment VM.
  3. Seneca's email server might add extra text to any ip addresses in your instructions. It starts with https://protect-us.mimecast.com/, then a string of random characters, then /domain=. Ignore that, and only use the ip addresses.
  4. Your c7host must be able to ssh to your assignment machine.
  5. If your assignment VM does not have the interface name given in the assignment instructions, use the interface you have.
  6. Your iptables rules must persist past the machine rebooting.
  7. Hint: The vgextend command can only add physical volumes to a pre-existing volume group. You need a different command to create a new volume group.
