can i modify the partition size of my linux software raid 10 ?
Hi,
i use mdadm to do raid10 on my cloudlinux server with cpanel,
i feel the /tmp is too small,
i think to move some space from /home to /tmp on my production server,
is it possible ?
thanx

Are /home and /tmp located on mdadm partitions? Do they correspond to different physical partitions on disks (e.g. /dev/md0 is /dev/sda1 and /dev/sdb1. /dev/md1 is /dev/sda2 and /dev/sdb2)?
Can you just make a new set of physical partitions and mdadm partitions (if there's free space)?
Or, as this is cPanel, is /tmp actually pointing to something like /usr/tmpDSK? You could just create a new tmpDSK using dd, initialise the filesystem using mkfs.ext3 and then rename it.█ GigaTux, Value Linux Hosting

You can use third party softwares like GParted LiveCD or PartedMagic LiveCD to resize the partitions of your linux server.
