Same problem for all other subvolumes like /var/log, /var/spool, etc.
I wonder if we should also rethink the subvolume layout a bit while we are at it. Maybe instead of creating lots of separate volumes, /var itself needs to become a subvolume?
That was my very first idea, but is not possible because of /var/lib/rpm. The RPM database has to stay on the root subvolume. Thorsten
====== Problem: any system setup according to "best practices" would have a heavy read/write volume like "/var" on a separate volume already. Generally, it's considered "best practice" to put subdirs with substantially different update/write cycles to be split off to a separate volume. I sometimes wonder if '/etc' is busy enough to split off of root, but its changes are limited to configuration changes for the most part, and not likely to be on a near continuous basis like '/var'. I wouldn't assume that '/var' is on a root volume -- mine has never been that way. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
