The partition table has been altered!
Calling ioctl() to re-read partition table.
Syncing disks.
Preparing the lvm partition
It is advisable to use LVM for installing and running CMU on the shared storage. Usage of
LVM guarantee that the CMU volume will be mounted only by one server at a time.
# fdisk /dev/sda
The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 51200.
There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024,
and could in certain setups cause problems with:
1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO)
2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs
(e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK)
