Once this crisis is over, I recommend going over this when you have free time.

Learning Linux has always been something I've wanted to do, but have never been able to find the time to do so in a work environment.

I totally understand. Either on your laptop or as another VM in XS, I would setup Linux. Then just take a topic or 2 a day and learn a new skill. After a while, you will be building one skill on top of another.

yum -y install lsblk

This is still all on Xen1. Do you want me to try anything on Xen2, the pool master?

Arg! What am I doing wrong with the dots that make it look like code for you?

Not apostrophes, those are back ticks.

6% is pretty small, could have filled up and cleared down.
