Description

m2.small works because the AMI for that size has a root device at `/dev/xvda`, which the CloudFormation populates. However, the AMI for m3.medium uses a root device of `/dev/sda`, which the CloudFormation does not populate, so the OS does not expose enough space for us to do TPC-H testing.

Research direction

Start by locating the CloudFormation configuration that provisions the m2.small and m3.medium nodes, then compare how each AMI root device is populated. Reproduce the node setup and run the TPC-H testing workflow. Done means both node sizes expose enough disk space for TPC-H testing.
