Hi, I'm thinking about the design for a new webserver system, which would have 4 users. I came to the conclusion that it would be nice to have several different File-Systems like /usr/local/www, /usr/local/mysql, /usr/home (with quota) and so on. I thought it would be a good idea just to give them the space they actually will need + some free space. Because I know AIX I thought it would be easy to just grow a FS if more space is needed. But now I read growfs(8), and it is only possible to grow an unmounted filesystem which is bad for /usr (for example), and not nice at all. Are there any plans to make it work with mounted Filesystems? -- Oliver Lehmann http://www.pofo.de/ http://wishlist.ans-netz.de/
