Hosting Beta Phase: Disk management

You should be logged in to post new messages. Create an account.

Hello,

I created a server with one share and added a 5gb disk to the server, my
question now is how I manage the disk space?

I want to install Plesk on the server, Plesk will install the majority
of the files in /var and the user files will also reside in that
directory, but my space is in /srv/d_mydisc so technically I will only
have the 2.4Gb mounted on / for the operating system to be used by
plesk.

So how do I map the space of my disk, and future disks that I might add
in the future, to the root(/) directory ?

This is very urgent, hope some one can help me.

Cheers
You can either create symlinks under /var pointing into your
/src/d_mydisc, or you can use mount --bind to mount directories of that
disk into the /var hierarchy.

Thank you for your reply, can you explain me how to use mount --bind
command to use all the space in /src/d_mydisc into /var.
