Hi All,

This is my scenario/problem, I hope someone can offer some guidance:

I have a server setup with 2x RAID arrays, the first is a 34Gb mirror, the second a 68Gb mirror. On the rist array I have everything but /home, and obviously /home on the second bigger array. Here are some system details:


/bin/dmesg | grep scs
scsi0 : percraid
/dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0: p1
Attached scsi removable disk sda at scsi0, channel 0, id 0, lun 0
/dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target1/lun0: p1
Attached scsi removable disk sdb at scsi0, channel 0, id 1, lun 0

Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda1 34G 884M 31G 3% /
tmpfs 443M 0 443M 0% /dev/shm
/dev/sdb1 68G 83M 64G 1% /home

# cat /etc/fstab
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/sda1 / ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro,usrquota,grpquota 0 1
/dev/sdb1 /home ext3 defaults,usrquota,grpquota 0 2
/dev/hda /media/cdrom0 iso9660 ro,user,noauto 0 0
/dev/fd0 /media/floppy0 auto rw,user,noauto 0 0

My problem is that I really now need /var to be on the big array, and /home to be on the smaller one. As a side issue, I am running strict quotas, and need this to remain in operation.

My question is, what is the safest and easiest way to do this?

Thanks in advance,
Graeme.
