1. Michael Sanford Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disks , Apache HTTP Server Project

   Two !raid arrays: 120 GB (mirror) "/" and 500 GB (mirror) for "/srv". Where to best put !httpd logs? On the system partition, right?

     @msanford Tough one - depends on how you use logs - and I never used the FHS /srv-layout, but as yours is 500GB big, I'd put my logs there

     @amette Basically, I split "the OS" and "other stuff" onto the two arrays. I basically want to even out disk access across the whole array…

     @amette But I had initially thought to put the logs on the 500 GB array anyway. Just seems a waste of 103 GB on the root partition :)

     @amette And since I never actually answered you: I use the !httpd logs really only for generating traffic stats.

     @msanford: I don't partition much - partitions are restrictions - for stats: you can delete logs early! /srv seems logically fine to me!! :)
