adding hd for a site

i know how to add a new hard drive to the serve. question is how can i add a hard drive to the server and give access to this drive for one site.

say i have 2 drives
/dev/sda1
/dev/sdb1
/dev/sdc1

i want /dev/sd1 and /dev/sdb1 to be general for sites 1,2,3,4 and want /dev/sdc1 to be just for site 3 for extra storage

now all sites are running so i dont know if this is an issue

Just put the document root of site3 on the third hard drive.

 

so are you saying if the old site directory is say /var/www/clients/client#/web# i should make it /dev/sdc1/folder



kwick

 

make backup of: /var/www/clients/client#/web#

mount sdc1 to /var/www/clients/client#/web# directory

restore data

 

You need to mount sdc1 somewhere first, as Franz explained.

 

would this work

Code:

sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/sdb1 -t ext3 /var/www/clients/client#/web#

yes it will work, but you have to backup data before.
