Hi, I'm about to set up a server under 4.x (later to be converted to 5.x once it becomes "stable"). Hardware: HP DL360 2xXeon 3GHz CPUs 1GB RAM 2x146GB SCSI-HDs (in RAID1-config) Usage: Generating logs of MTRG-statistics (i.e. gathering data via snmp and producing graphics out of the data) These statistics are to be viewed via http (that's "simple http"-traffic - just viewing web-pages; no user interaction in terms of users entering data) My questions is on how to set up filesystems, i.e. how much space out of the 146GB should I give to o) /usr o) /home o) swap o) /var o) /tmp o) /usr/tmp Besides the suggestions in tuning(7) - is there anything additional to consider? Any caveats & pitfalls? TIA for your help, -ewald
