Hi;
I'd like some feedback on the following. First, I'd like to separate
/tmp from swap. In the current configuration I have six available
disks. I'd like to format them the following way: O/S disk + mirror,
whole disk one partition. Swap disk + mirror, whole disk one
partition. Tmp disk + mirror, whole disk one partition.
I know the above may look a little expensive in disk use, but
application requirements are such that the additional tmp (and
separation from swap) would be beneficial.
Questions: Does anyone have a sample vfstab with separate /tmp and swap ?
I know the performance hit to be had when making /tmp a real
filesystem, so is there anything stopping me from making /tmp a tmpfs
file system ? Would that conflict with swap being a tmpfs file system
?
Any Input appreciated. I will summarize.
--John
