Amazon EC2 and EBS mount point tip

After a few experimentation on Amazon EC2 and its new feature(Amazon EBS), I was able to share some tips for an EBS device formatted as XFS. Always make sure that the file permission belongs to the correct user(s) UID when you start using the mounted EBS device(unless of course if its a newly created/formatted).

Thanks to Eric Hammond for posting my name on his MySQL Amazon EBS tutorial. http://ec2ebs-mysql.notlong.com

Did I get the scalr running?

Well after some little tweaking on the installation and setup at Amazon EC2. I got the scalr running.
See the pics below for snapshot.

This really makes a good starting point to scale applications. Actually, after I was able to run scalr, there’s lot of ideas entering my mind. Usually ideas of possible applications that I can make using this project.

I admire you guys working at scalr. But for now, let me ponder more ideas on how to use your to solution to manage scalable apps at amazon.
