Lab: File System 2, broken

Linux Basics Course
#1

For the question:

Can you find out the type of filesystem created in /dev/vdc?

vdc has not file system:

sudo gdisk /dev/vdc
GPT fdisk (gdisk) version 1.0.3

Partition table scan:
  MBR: not present
  BSD: not present
  APM: not present
  GPT: not present

Creating new GPT entries.

Command (? for help): p
Disk /dev/vdc: 2097152 sectors, 1024.0 MiB
Sector size (logical/physical): 512/512 bytes
Disk identifier (GUID): 1CC922AE-1314-4EDD-BFF9-E58FD2A457A1
Partition table holds up to 128 entries
Main partition table begins at sector 2 and ends at sector 33
First usable sector is 34, last usable sector is 2097118
Partitions will be aligned on 2048-sector boundaries
Total free space is 2097085 sectors (1024.0 MiB)

Hi @peter.mattingly

Which lab and question number (direct link to it)?

#3

I found it.

Not sure what you are seeing, but it seems fine to me.

Q3 - Out of the disks /dev/vdb and /dev/vdc , which one has a filesystem created?

sudo lsblk

NAME                   MAJ:MIN RM  SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
vda                    252:0    0   10G  0 disk 
└─vda1                 252:1    0   10G  0 part 
  ├─vagrant--vg-root   253:0    0    9G  0 lvm  /
  └─vagrant--vg-swap_1 253:1    0  980M  0 lvm  [SWAP]
vdb                    252:16   0    1G  0 disk 
vdc                    252:32   0    1G  0 disk /mnt/backups

Answer: /dev/vdc

Q4 - Can you find out the type of filesystem created in /dev/vdc ?

sudo blkid

/dev/vda1: UUID="ecXq0T-x7d2-Hma9-rS1w-Mi02-st3y-EqIoiW" TYPE="LVM2_member" PARTUUID="c0e721e6-01"
/dev/mapper/vagrant--vg-root: UUID="bc871017-493f-41c1-b404-edf8dbf6ecef" TYPE="ext4"
/dev/mapper/vagrant--vg-swap_1: UUID="11b93908-9eb8-4f7d-ad13-94fd79986c5a" TYPE="swap"
/dev/vdc: UUID="b99041ad-8060-4c5b-b5df-1548cdb23030" TYPE="ext2"

Answer: ext2

Not sure. When I went back to check, the lab seemed to have reset. Perhaps the issue was with the lab before the reset?
