Re: [foxboro] Making more space in /usr/local

Winston,

Yes, that's essentially what we did with our file system on the Solaris
boxes so it's backward compatible with the old AP-20s. Make sure you
propagate that custom vfstab file when you build up a new box.

Subject: [foxboro] Making more space in /usr/local



List Gurus,

Here is what I did to make my /usr/local bigger.  Will someone please 
comment on the validity of this procedure before I get so far into this 
hole that I can never dig myself out?

Retarget /usr/local to /opt/ulocal
                a) cp -r /usr/local/* /opt/ulocal #Probably should have done
"cp -R ..."
                b) Added line to /etc/vfstab --> "/opt/ulocal/ - /usr/local
lofs - yes -"
                c) renamed /usr/local to /usr/local.orig
                d) mkdir /usr/local
                e) reboot

The idea is to make /usr/local really refer to /opt/ulocal (where I have 
lots of space)
