Use Almost Disk Space Will Harm Hard Disk
Apr 29, 2008My server has a small SAS disk(about 73G), if I use 90% diskspace of it, is it good idea, will it harm the physical HDD?
View 6 Replies View Related2 SATAII Disk W/RAID0 Vs One SAS Disk
Jan 8, 2009I am looking for better disk performance. Due to the tight budget, I have to choose one of following options as my disk choice:
2 SATAII disk w/RAID0, 7200rpm, 32M cache for each disk
1 SAS disk, 15000rpm, 16M cache.
which one will be better and how better if other things(hardware & OS) are same?
Disk Image To Disk Partition (Xen)
Sep 1, 2008can a Xen disk image be converted to a diskpartition?
Someone is asking whether I can host his disk image at his current host, which he is leaving for poor I/O (wonder why that would be ). I can host a diskimage, but I don't like diskimages (slow, and 100GB isn't very 'comfortable' either). Is there any way out there to convert a disk image into a normal partition?
Apache :: Use Disk To Enhance For Page Cache And Database Cache For Disk
Apr 24, 2013I use apache with CentOS VPS hosting for my blog. I only host one blog in this VPS account. I have 1.5GB RAM and I have 7, 500 page preview per day. My page loading time is 2-3 seconds (according to the pingdom tool).
I want to know what is the best performance (faster web page loading) W3 Total cache option for VPS hosting blog. Currently I use Disk to enhance for page cache and database cache for disk.

Set Up Disk Quotas
Apr 27, 2009As per this [url]tutorial to set up disk quotas u need the /Home in the fstab file but how ever all i can find on my server is this:
LABEL=/ / ext3 defaults 1 1
LABEL=/disc2 /disc2 ext3 defaults 1 2
tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
sysfs /sys sysfs defaults 0 0
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
LABEL=SWAP-sdb2 swap swap defaults 0 0
LABEL=SWAP-sda2 swap swap defaults 0 0
How do i go about setting quota for my users

Disk Inodes
Oct 21, 2009I have a VPS that has hard limits for Disk Inodes at 500,000. I am currently over 430,000.
I am only using 24GB of 40GB of disk space.
How do I find what is gobbling up disk inodes? How can I find unused, abusive or unnecessary disk inodes and remove them?
# df -i

Disk IO Performance
Mar 26, 2008From the Disk I/O performance is it better
1) to have main PHP file with 10 includes
2) all 11 files as one file
3) the difference is not big
Suppose
a) a low traffic site
b) a high traffice site
Where Is All My Disk Space Used
Jun 28, 2008I have a server with cpanel/WHM. The file system says I am using 26GB of my 40GB:
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda1 40G 26G 14G 66% /
none 257M 0 257M 0% /dev/shm
/usr/tmpDSK 243M 4.1M 226M 2% /tmp
/tmp 243M 4.1M 226M 2% /var/tmp
however the total of my accounts is less than 5GB.
How can I find out where all the other disk space is being used?
Partitionning A 750 Gb Disk
Nov 1, 2008partitionning a server disk.
I have a 76 gb disk which is partitioned this way :
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/sdb5 10317828 319000 9474712 4% /
/dev/sdb1 101086 24171 71696 26% /boot

/tmp 1035660 34732 948320 4% /var/tmp
I would like to create the same kind of partition on another server, but the disk is 750 gb and I need /var to be at least 30 gb big.
How big must the other partitions be ?
Regarding "none" ---> /dev/shm,
I don't understand very well. Do I have to create this partition myself ?

What I do
More Than Use Disk Usage
Jul 21, 2007i Have 2 vps From Swvps and HostForWeb

Swvps=> 13 gig Usage
HostForWeb=> 23 gig space!
Why So Little Disk Space
May 13, 2008I've got a server in a local colo facility. both the facility and my server are slowly falling apart. Rather than investing in hardware and then shipping it to some location and hoping it doesn't break, I've decided to investigate VPS.
What I am finding is puzzling me. Why do providers charge so much for disk space? My current old p3-733 has a 30gb drive, I could deal with about 15gb but with some 'flex' room (i.e. a virtual drive for uncompressing files or some such). It's a personal server for me and a couple of friends, it doesn't get much traffic, I don't need a heck of a lot of bandwidth, nor anything flashy, just Ubuntu 8.04. I see places offering plenty of traffic for a decent price, yet little in the way of storage. I just don't get it.
A year ago I was here wanting to trade my class C for a dedicated server. I realize now that it would be pretty difficult for providers to do this, because if I wanted to yank my class c they'd have to renumber. But if anyone is still interested, let me know.
Imaging Disk Via SSH
Jun 22, 2008I've decided I want cPanel installed on my iWeb dedicated box. They informed me it will require a reinstall. Before they do this I wanted to image the disk and download the image to my PC. Is this possible to do via SSH? I'd prefer an open-source free solution.

May 16, 2008I have a site with a lot of data (almost 20-30gigs). I want to pkgacct the site to transfer to another server but the harddisk gets full and the pkgacct stops working.
Which files and folders can I delete on the server without touching critical CPanel files? I want to delete as many as folders so that I can have enough space for the packaging process.

Xen Disk IO Performance
Jun 19, 2007One of the things people seem to bring up a lot is disk IO Performance.
Why? Because theres little you can do about a customer being stupid and creating a disk swap nightmare.
There is however something you can do to reduce the impact across your clients, Have a separate raid array for swap space.
This does 2 things, it splits some of the Disk IO across 2 arrays, but more important it reduces the affect someone overusing there swap will have on the ones that are not.
Just my quick 10 cents for the day.

Only One Disk In Dedicated Server
Apr 29, 2009I wonder why the USA used to give to the servers, only one disk? from my experience with the most disk malfunction occurs and the immediate unavailability of the server (and, if sufficiently intensive and does not lose data). Or is a solution which I have noticed, and they use it?

The root filesystem is only using 917 GB while the size is 967 GB. Where has the 50 GB gone to? CentOS tells me that the diskspace is indeed full already, so I wonder where is the disappearing space?
Wrong Disk Usage In WHM
Jul 11, 2009I'm having a problem with my /usr. When I check it through WHM it's 100% full. But when I check it through SSH ( du -sh /usr ). it's almost 50% full
is there a way to let WHM recalculates the disk usage for /usr.
i already tried to empty it. but the 100% in WHM never changed. I deleted about 3GB of files. but in WHM, still saying 9.4GB used from 9.9GB

Nocster Disk Partitioning
Jun 28, 2008I got a new server from Nocster today with a 80GB drive. Went to look at my fee disk space and I notice the largest partition is only 48GB... yuck. Then I noticed the way they partitioned the drive:
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda5 2.0G 332M 1.6G 18% /
/dev/hda1 99M 24M 70M 26% /boot
tmpfs 498M 0 498M 0% /dev/shm
/dev/hda8 48G 11G 36G 23% /home
/dev/hda6 996M 34M 911M 4% /tmp
/dev/hda3 9.7G 1.4G 7.8G 16% /usr
/dev/hda2 9.7G 201M 9.0G 3% /var
This is definately something I'm not used to. Putting all these things on seperate partitions like that is really going to make it difficult for me to utilize all my disk space. On every other server I've had, all the free space was under / with partitions just for /boot and /dev/shm. Is there anyway to fix this without reinstalling the OS?
