We just received a new RedHat v7.2 server from Dell. This is an
experiment to see how linux works compared to our current installation
of NT servers. This will be an intranet server behind our firewall.

Our 40gb drive came partitioned as follows:

/dev/hda1       ext3    990mb   /home
/dev/hda6       ext3    494mb   /
/dev/hda2       ext3    22.8mb  /boot
/dev/hda8       ext3    60.7mb  /tmp
/dev/hda3       ext3    21.8gb  /usr
/dev/hda5       ext3    13.1gb  /var

I installed apache (2.x.39) to the default location and I'm trying to
install ColdFusion MX. It wants to install to /opt which is in / and
there isn't near enough room, its already 60% full.

I heard you shouldn't move /etc because there is something in there
necessary for finding other mount points.

I assume my website is going to /etc/httpd and since my other software
is going to /opt I need more room, what is the usual place for databases
to go?

How can I make my / partition bigger? Do I really need 21.8gb for /usr?

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.
