I'm about to create a migrate my existing proxmox server, I sell VPS hosting. My current server has 16GB Ram and 2 x 250GB SDD (Raid10), my new server will now also have 2 x 4TB HDD (Raid10) and I'll likely increase the ram to 32GB in the future at some point. The current server stats indicate; SWAP 8GB (971MB Used) and HD space (root) 25GB (3.66GB Used).
So it seems I can quiet safely lower my root partition to 10GB, and I know on SSD drives you should always use ext4. So I'm thinking to install the next server with "linux ext4 maxroot=10 swapsize=20"?
While the main server and all VPS will run on the SDD, (usually sold at 10GB blocks) I intend to use the new 4TB for;
I'd really appreciate feedback and suggestions.
Thanks

- Client self managed backup snapshots
- ISO / OpenVZ Templates
- Client increased storage options, eg. NFS mounted partitions inside a CT (haven't worked out how to do this elegantly yet, any ideas?)
I'd really appreciate feedback and suggestions.
Thanks
