The following table lists the partitioning requirements for the disk drive of each server within your OTP system.

Table 3–1 OTP System Server Disk Partition Requirements

Slice 

Partition 

Size 

0 

/ (root)

All remaining free space on the disk after allocating space for slices 2 through 7. 

1 

swap

Two to three times total system ram, or 4 Gbytes, whichever is greater. 

2 

overlap 

The entire system disk.

/globaldevices

512 Mbytes minimum. 

The OTP high availability framework later assigns this slice a different mount point and mounts the slice as a cluster file system. 

Note –

/globaldevices can reside on any unused slice on any disk on the server. Failure to allocate /globaldevices on an OTP systemwill cause Open Telecommunications Platform to fail.

4 through 6 

unused 

Not used.
