  • Inspect the datastores directory on every Host.

5.1.1

From the Node 1’s Command Line list the contents of datastores directory.

ls -lah ~/datastores/

total 20K
drwxr-x--- 5 oneadmin oneadmin 4.0K Jul 21 07:16 .
drwxr-x--- 9 oneadmin oneadmin 4.0K Jul 22 19:39 ..
drwxr-xr-x 2 oneadmin oneadmin 4.0K Jul 21 07:16 .isofiles
drwxr-xr-x 2 oneadmin oneadmin 4.0K Jul 21 07:04 1
drwxr-xr-x 2 oneadmin oneadmin 4.0K Jul 21 07:04 2

5.1.2

Note that your output might have it other way around!

From the Node 1’s Command Line list the Node 2’s directories.

ssh lab-X-node2 'ls -lah ~/datastores/'
total 8.0K
drwxr-x--- 2 oneadmin oneadmin 4.0K Jul 21 07:11 .
drwxr-x--- 7 oneadmin oneadmin 4.0K Jul 22 10:07 ..

Perform the same on Node 3.

ssh lab-X-node3 'ls -lah ~/datastores/'

total 12K
drwxr-x--- 3 oneadmin oneadmin 4.0K Jul 21 07:16 .
drwxr-x--- 6 oneadmin oneadmin 4.0K Jul 21 07:11 ..
drwxrwxr-x 2 oneadmin oneadmin 4.0K Jul 21 08:02 0
