HDD configuration

[carnaghiarquitectura]

im tryng to figure out the best configuration for my HDDs i have 4 of them (160gb - 200gb - 1tb - 1tb)
is this configuration correct??:

160 GB HDD for OS with this partitions (i made an error with home making it to small... i think ill have to reinstall)
/dev/sdb1 1000 MB 800 MB 60 MB (7%) /boot
/dev/sdb2 20 MB 20 MB 200 KB (2%) /home
/dev/sdb5 100 GB 100 GB 40 GB (32%) /

200 GB HDD for landing zone (still trying to figure out how to acomplish)
/var/hda/files/drives/drive1

1TB pool storage
/var/hda/files/drives/drive2

1TB pool storage
/var/hda/files/drives/drive3

The scheme you want to use looks like a good choice. As for the LZ, you mount the 200GB drive as /var/hda/files. The adding a second hard drive to your HDA article will provide some guidance.

If you don't intend to use the /home partition for storing any files, it's probably ok. Most use the shares for files. Other wise if you need it larger, a reinstall is best.

there is also a share called <username> under /home/<username> for every user and it is only accessible for that specific user. If you want to use these shares it's probably better to have a /home partition that is larger I think.

thanks for the reply!!
ill be working tomorrow on this and see how it goes....
another thing is that for some reason the Greyhole UI Server is alwais off... regardin if i start it... is this a comon error??

[bigfoot65]

No the Greyhole server should not be off. As root user do the following:

Code: Select all

systemctl status amahi-greyhole

If it's not running, try doing this:

Code: Select all

systemctl start amahi-greyhole

Do you have any partitions allocated to the storage pool?
