Oracle iPlanet Web Proxy Server 4.0.14 Configuration File Reference

PARTITION

Configures the storage area on a disk that you set aside for caching. If you want to have your cache span several disks, you need to configure at least one cache partition for each disk. Each partition can be independently administered, so you can enable, disable, and configure a partition independently of all other partitions.

(Optional) Number for the maximum size to which you want to allow the cache partition to grow, listed in megabytes. 

minspace

5 Mbytes 

The minimum amount of available space, in megabytes, on the physical partition. This partition is the actual disk on which the cache partition resides. If less space is available, the proxy stops caching to that cache partition, even if the cache has not reached the maximum size (maxsize). The proxy server continues to write to other partitions that are not full.
