IPLs don't depend on /tmp, /opt, or /usr, per se.  You can get the
system up without any of those.  Having a usable system is another
matter.  I'm not exactly sure what your concern is about "depending on
more than one volume."

Subject: /tmp /usr /opt: where do they belong after an IPL?


When we installed SuSE on an LPAR, we put everything under one 3390 M9
with the following partitions:
1) /boot (124 MB)
2) /          (5 GB)
3) SWAP (1.6+)

Then, we created two LVM, one for sys01 and another for app01.  Each
have
5+ 3390 M9 volumes assigned.
My question now is regarding /usr, /opt and /tmp.  They will probably
grow quite a bit and might be a good idea to get all or some of those
directories or subdirectories to /sys01.  But how can I do so without
compromising my IPL's to depend on more than one volume.
