Hi Mark, John F wrote to you on the partitioning question, but I'm the one who posed the question. We are building a dspace installation to upgrade the current which is running on an old box. It is new hardware.
The assetstore(s) will me on a Dell MD1000 array. I want to partition the array into 2T partitions with XFS file system to aid in recovery in the event recovery is forced. I don't have a lot experience with recovery times on large partitions, but smaller partitions will recover faster. It sounds like to me you can manually balance data stored on each partition. How can you configure this through dspace.cfg? Any suggestions would be appreciated.Thanks.
