I am going to re-install my remote server in the new year with Ubuntu 9.10 using The Perfect Server - Ubuntu Karmic Koala (Ubuntu 9.10) [ISPConfig 2] As I dont have access to this server directly I can not carry out the first 2 pages of that tutorial. What would the ideal setup for raid be? I can either let the software loader install the default Ubuntu setup, which ends up not matching falco's tut. I can access the setup and set the partitions manually tho. But am not sure as to what. There are 2 1Tb hard drives. Any help/advice appreciated. Current setup is: Disk1: /dev/sda /dev/sda1 ext3 / 9.77Gb boot, raid /dev/sda2 ext3 /home raid /dev/sda3 linux swap 512.22Mb Disk2: /dev/sdb /dev/sdb1 ext3 / 9.77Gb boot, raid /dev/sdb2 ext3 /home raid /dev/sdb3 linux swap 512.22Mb It is currently mirrored raid,I think, but I would like to have full use of all 2Tb to have an archive file section etc
You can either replace the /home partition with a /var partition, or you just use one big / partition and swap, no other partitions.
