  • Cpanel Server Disk Partition

    Cpanel Server Disk Partition

    Many server providers setup server with smaller / partition like 20 GB. This is fine for normal Linux Servers, you will need more disk space on Cpanel Servers. Many use CloudLinux on Cpanel Servers, this will require you to have more free disk space on / partition.

    The partition i use for Cpanel Servers are

    /  = 122880 MB (120 GB)
/home = rest of the disk
swap = 8192 MB (8 GB)

    I don’t create seperate partition for /usr and /var as this will use up more space, may end up one of the partition get filled up while other have lot of free space. Having one partition for /, you don’t need to worry much.

    Another partition scheme is give everything to /

    /  = All of the disk.
swap = 8 GB
