Hello, I'm on the way of building a new server. I have limited room in / and want to be able to backup relevant data easily. So I wonder where data is stored in a server (apache, postfix or exim, mailman, inn, dovecot, squirellmail...). I know most of the config data is in /etc. There is little problem to backup /etc because no file there should be let open (locked). I already moved /srv to /home. In fact, I create a /data folder in /home, with /srv folder in it and mount it bind on /srv with this fstab line: /home/data/srv /srv none bind this works very well. AFAIK, Inn or Mailman data are stored in fake users in /home but what about mariadb (mysql), log files, mail spool files? is it possible/sensible to make for /var what I did for /srv? (there is an annoying /var/lib/ntp/proc/ folder there :-() any other idea? thanks jdd -- http://www.dodin.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
