Ext3
Ext3 is a journaling filesystem developed by Stephen Tweedie. It is compatible to ext2 filesystems; actually you can look at it as an ext2 filesystem with a journal file. The journaling capability means no more waiting for fsck’s or worrying about metadata corruption. What is most noticeable is that you can switch back and forth between ext2 and ext3 on a partition without any problem: it is just a matter of giving the mount command the right filesystem type.

JFS
The Journaled File System (JFS) provides a log-based, byte-level file system that was developed for transaction-oriented, high performance systems. Scalable and robust, its advantage over non-journaled file systems is its quick restart capability: JFS can restore a file system to a consistent state in a matter of seconds or minutes.
While tailored primarily for the high throughput and reliability requirements of servers ( from single processor systems to advanced multi-processor and clustered systems), JFS is also applicable to client configurations where performance and reliability are desired.
JFS is IBM software.
JFS Overview at IBM Developer Works

Lustre
Lustre is a scalable, secure, robust, highly-available cluster file system. It is designed, developed and maintained by Cluster File Systems, Inc.
The central goal is the development of a next-generation cluster file system which can serve clusters with 10,000′s of nodes, petabytes of storage, move 100′s of GB/sec with state of the art security and management infrastructure.
Lustre runs today on many of the largest Linux clusters in the world, and is included by CFS’s partners as a core component of their cluster offering (examples include HP StorageWorks SFS, and the Cray XT3 and XD1 supercomputers). Today’s users have also demonstrated that Lustre scales down as well as it scales up, and run in production on clusters as small as 4 and as large as 15,000 nodes.
The latest version of Lustre is always available from Cluster File Systems, Inc. Public Open Source releases of Lustre are made under the GNU General Public License. These releases are found here, and are used in production supercomputing environments worldwide.
You may subscribe to the lustre-announce mailing list to be informed of releases.
Lustre development would not have been possible without funding and guidance from many organizations, including several US National Laboratories, early adopters, and product partners.

GPFS
The IBM General Parallel File System (GPFS) is a high-performance shared-disk file system that can provide fast, reliable data access from all nodes in a homogenous or heterogenous cluster of IBM UNIX® servers running either the AIX 5L or the Linux operating system.
GPFS allows parallel applications simultaneous access to a set of files (or even a single file) from any node that has the GPFS file system mounted while providing a high level of control over all file system operations.
GPFS is IBM software.

GFS
GFS (Global File System) is a cluster file system. It allows a cluster of computers to simultaneously use a block device that is shared between them (with FC, iSCSI, NBD, etc…). GFS reads and writes to the block device like a local filesystem, but also uses a lock module to allow the computers coordinate their I/O so filesystem consistency is maintained. One of the nifty features of GFS is perfect consistency — changes made to the filesystem on one machine show up immediately on all other machines in the cluster.

PVFS
The goal of the Parallel Virtual File System (PVFS) Project is to explore the design, implementation, and uses of parallel I/O. PVFS serves as both a platform for parallel I/O research as well as a production file system for the cluster computing community. PVFS is currently targeted at clusters of workstations, or Beowulfs.
PVFS supports the UNIX I/O interface and allows existing UNIX I/O programs to use PVFS files without recompiling. The familiar UNIX file tools (ls, cp, rm, etc.) will all operate on PVFS files and directories as well. This is accomplished via a Linux kernel module which is provided as a separate package.
PVFS stripes file data across multiple disks in different nodes in a cluster. By spreading out file data in this manner, larger files can be created, potential bandwidth is increased, and network bottlenecks are minimized. A 64-bit interface is implemented as well, allowing large (more than 2GB) files to be created and accessed.

How to *.tar/ *.tar.gz/ *.tgz/ *.tar.bz2
1. Creating an archive using tar command
Creating an uncompressed tar archive using option cvf
This is the basic command to create a tar archive.
$ tar cvf archive_name.tar dirname/
In the above command:
c – create a new archive
v – verbosely list files which are processed.
f – following is the archive file name
Creating a tar gzipped archive using option cvzf
The above tar cvf option, does not provide any compression. To use a gzip compression on the tar archive, use the z option as shown below.
$ tar cvzf archive_name.tar.gz dirname/
z – filter the archive through gzip
Note: .tgz is same as .tar.gz
Creating a bzipped tar archive using option cvjf
Create a bzip2 tar archive as shown below:
$ tar cvjf archive_name.tar.bz2 dirname/
j – filter the archive through bzip2
gzip vs bzip2: bzip2 takes more time to compress and decompress than gzip. bzip2 archival size is less than gzip.
Note: .tbz and .tb2 is same as .tar.bz2
Note: I like to keep the ‘cvf’ option unchanged for all archive creation, and add additional option at the end, which is easier to remember. i.e cvf for archive creation, cvzf for compressed gzip archive creation, cvjf for compressed bzip2 archive creation etc.,
2. Extracting (untar) an archive using tar command
Extract a *.tar file using option xvf
Extract a tar file using option x as shown below:
$ tar xvf archive_name.tar
x – extract files from archive
Extract a gzipped tar archive ( *.tar.gz ) using option xvzf
Use the option z for uncompressing a gzip tar archive.
$ tar xvzf archive_name.tar.gz
Extracting a bzipped tar archive ( *.tar.bz2 ) using option xvjf
Use the option j for uncompressing a bzip2 tar archive.
$ tar xvjf archive_name.tar.bz2
Note: In all the above commands v is optional, which lists the file being processed.
3. Listing an archive using tar command
View the tar archive file content without extracting using option tvf
You can view the *.tar file content before extracting as shown below.
$ tar tvf archive_name.tar
View the *.tar.gz file content without extracting using option tvzf
You can view the *.tar.gz file content before extracting as shown below.
$ tar tvzf archive_name.tar.gz
View the *.tar.bz2 file content without extracting using option tvjf
You can view the *.tar.bz2 file content before extracting as shown below.
$ tar tvjf archive_name.tar.bz2
4. Extract a single file from tar, tar.gz, tar.bz2 file
To extract a specific file from a tar archive, specify the file name at the end of the tar xvf command as shown below. The following command extracts only a specific file from a large tar file.
$ tar -xvf archive_file.tar /path/to/file
Use the relevant option z or j according to the compression method gzip or bzip2 respectively as shown below.
$ tar -xvzf archive_file.tar.gz /path/to/file
$ tar -xvjf archive_file.tar.bz2 /path/to/file
5. Extract a single directory from tar, tar.gz, tar.bz2 file
To extract a single directory (along with it’s subdirectory and files) from a tar archive, specify the directory name at the end of the tar xvf command as shown below. The following extracts only a specific directory from a large tar file.
$ tar -xvf archive_file.tar /path/to/dir/
To extract multiple directories from a tar archive, specify those individual directory names at the end of the tar xvf command as shown below.
$ tar -xvf archive_file.tar /path/to/dir1/ /path/to/dir2/
Use the relevant option z or j according to the compression method gzip or bzip2 respectively as shown below.
$ tar -xvzf archive_file.tar.gz /path/to/dir/
$ tar -xvjf archive_file.tar.bz2 /path/to/dir/
6. Extract group of files from tar, tar.gz, tar.bz2 archives using regular expression
You can specify a regex, to extract files matching a specified pattern. For example, following tar command extracts all the files with pl extension.
$ tar -xvf archive_file.tar --wildcards '*.pl'
Options explanation:
–wildcards *.pl – files with pl extension
7. Adding a file or directory to an existing archive using option -r
You can add additional files to an existing tar archive as shown below. For example, to append a file to *.tar file do the following:
$ tar rvf archive_name.tar newfile
This newfile will be added to the existing archive_name.tar. Adding a directory to the tar is also similar,
$ tar rvf archive_name.tar newdir/
Note: You cannot add file or directory to a compressed archive. If you try to do so, you will get “tar: Cannot update compressed archives” error as shown below.
$ tar -rvzf archive_name.tgz newfile
tar: Cannot update compressed archives
Try `tar --help' or `tar --usage' for more information.
8. Verify files available in tar using option -W
As part of creating a tar file, you can verify the archive file that got created using the option W as shown below.
$ tar cvfW file_name.tar dir/
If you are planning to remove a directory/file from an archive file or from the file system, you might want to verify the archive file before doing it as shown below.
$ tar tvfW file_name.tar
Verify 1/file1
1/file1: Mod time differs
1/file1: Size differs
Verify 1/file2
Verify 1/file3
If an output line starts with Verify, and there is no differs line then the file/directory is Ok. If not, you should investigate the issue.
Note: for a compressed archive file ( *.tar.gz, *.tar.bz2 ) you cannot do the verification.
Finding the difference between an archive and file system can be done even for a compressed archive. It also shows the same output as above excluding the lines with Verify.
Finding the difference between gzip archive file and file system
$ tar dfz file_name.tgz
Finding the difference between bzip2 archive file and file system
$ tar dfj file_name.tar.bz2
9. Estimate the tar archive size
The following command, estimates the tar file size ( in KB ) before you create the tar file.
$ tar -cf - /directory/to/archive/ | wc -c
20480
The following command, estimates the compressed tar file size ( in KB ) before you create the tar.gz, tar.bz2 files.
$ tar -czf - /directory/to/archive/ | wc -c
508
$ tar -cjf - /directory/to/archive/ | wc -c

5. Don’t resolve host, port and user name in netstat output
When you don’t want the name of the host, port or user to be displayed, use netstat -n option. This will display in numbers, instead of resolving the host name, port name, user name.
This also speeds up the output, as netstat is not performing any look-up.
# netstat -an
If you don’t want only any one of those three items ( ports, or hosts, or users ) to be resolved, use following commands.
# netsat -a --numeric-ports
# netsat -a --numeric-hosts
# netsat -a --numeric-users

Note: Use netstat -rn to display routes in numeric format without resolving for host-names.
9. Find out on which port a program is running
# netstat -ap | grep ssh
(Not all processes could be identified, non-owned process info
will not be shown, you would have to be root to see it all.)

Active Internet connections (w/o servers)
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State PID/Program name
tcp 1 0 ramesh-laptop.loc:47212 192.168.185.75:www CLOSE_WAIT 2109/firefox
tcp 0 0 ramesh-laptop.loc:52750 lax:www ESTABLISHED 2109/firefox
5. Don’t resolve host, port and user name in netstat output
When you don’t want the name of the host, port or user to be displayed, use netstat -n option. This will display in numbers, instead of resolving the host name, port name, user name.
This also speeds up the output, as netstat is not performing any look-up.
# netstat -an
If you don’t want only any one of those three items ( ports, or hosts, or users ) to be resolved, use following commands.
# netsat -a --numeric-ports
# netsat -a --numeric-hosts
# netsat -a --numeric-users
6. Print netstat information continuously
netstat will print information continuously every few seconds.
# netstat -c
Active Internet connections (w/o servers)
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State
tcp 0 0 ramesh-laptop.loc:36130 101-101-181-225.ama:www ESTABLISHED
tcp 1 1 ramesh-laptop.loc:52564 101.11.169.230:www CLOSING
tcp 0 0 ramesh-laptop.loc:43758 server-101-101-43-2:www ESTABLISHED
tcp 1 1 ramesh-laptop.loc:42367 101.101.34.101:www CLOSING
^C
7. Find the non supportive Address families in your system
netstat --verbose
At the end, you will have something like this.
netstat: no support for `AF IPX' on this system.
netstat: no support for `AF AX25' on this system.
netstat: no support for `AF X25' on this system.
netstat: no support for `AF NETROM' on this system.
8. Display the kernel routing information using netstat -r
# netstat -r
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags MSS Window irtt Iface
192.168.1.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth2
link-local * 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 eth2
default 192.168.1.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth2
Note: Use netstat -rn to display routes in numeric format without resolving for host-names.
9. Find out on which port a program is running
# netstat -ap | grep ssh
(Not all processes could be identified, non-owned process info
will not be shown, you would have to be root to see it all.)
tcp 1 0 dev-db:ssh 101.174.100.22:39213 CLOSE_WAIT -
tcp 1 0 dev-db:ssh 101.174.100.22:57643 CLOSE_WAIT -
Find out which process is using a particular port:
# netstat -an | grep ':80'
10. Show the list of network interfaces
# netstat -i
Kernel Interface table
Iface MTU Met RX-OK RX-ERR RX-DRP RX-OVR TX-OK TX-ERR TX-DRP TX-OVR Flg
eth0 1500 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 BMU
eth2 1500 0 26196 0 0 0 26883 6 0 0 BMRU
lo 16436 0 4 0 0 0 4 0 0 0 LRU
Display extended information on the interfaces (similar to ifconfig) using netstat -ie:
# netstat -ie
Kernel Interface table

Using bridged networking with Virt-manager
To do this, we install the package bridge-utils...
yum install bridge-utils
... and configure a bridge. Create the file /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-br0 (please use the BOOTPROTO, BROADCAST, IPADDR, NETMASK and NETWORK values from the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 file):
vi /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-br0
DEVICE=br0
TYPE=Bridge
BOOTPROTO=static
BROADCAST=192.168.0.255
IPADDR=192.168.0.100
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
NETWORK=192.168.0.0
ONBOOT=yes
Modify /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 as follows (comment out BOOTPROTO, BROADCAST, IPADDR, NETMASK, and NETWORK and add BRIDGE=br0):
vi /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
# Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+
DEVICE=eth0
#BOOTPROTO=static
#BROADCAST=192.168.0.255
HWADDR=00:10:A7:05:AF:EB
#IPADDR=192.168.0.100
#NETMASK=255.255.255.0
#NETWORK=192.168.0.0
ONBOOT=yes
BRIDGE=br0
Restart the network...
/etc/init.d/network restart
... and run
ifconfig
It should now show the network bridge (br0):
