Hi, I'm setting up a File server it contains a 20gb disk which holds all the system stuff and two 40Gb disks raided together to hold user home directories, CVS repository, and the /usr/src and /usr/ports stuff so that I can make them avaliable to all servers via NFS. The problem I have is I have no idea what size to make the /usr/ports and /usr/src filesystems? Does anyone have any idea on a good ideal size I know that /usr/ports is about 100Mb and that /usr/src is about 280Mb but how big are they likely to get during kernel compiles etc. I did consider making the whole disk the /usr filesystem but at 80Gb this seemed a bit excessive. Also how may filesystem are you limited to per disk? And is vinum a good option?
