Bug Description
Brief Description
-----------------
The installer creates the platform_backup partition but does not check if it was properly created. In labs when using certain types of disks, the partition has been seen to be of type vfat instead of ext4 for example. The installation process should detect this and report a failure. One good place to add this check would be in the ansible playbook.
Severity
--------
Major
Steps to Reproduce
------------------
At this point it is not clear what disk will trigger the issue.
Expected Behavior
------------------
Installation should fail and report an error due to inability to create the platform_backup partition properly.
Actual Behavior
----------------
Install and ansible playbook completes with no errors reported for the platform_backup partition.
Reproducibility
---------------
Seen once. Only seen on a system with an incorrect partition for platform_backup.
