Please keep in mind that this question is coming from someone relatively
ignorant of z/Linux and it's care and feeding.

I there some cookbook or other FM that would help me to understand the
how's and why's of splitting up the filesystems onto various volume
groups and mountpoints?

If you've already broken out your other file systems, as Pieter talked
about, then something is wrong.  My root file systems are typically
300-400MB in size, and are less than 50% full.
# df -h
Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/dasda1           388M   97M  271M  27% /
/dev/mapper/vg1-home   97M  4.2M   88M   5% /home
/dev/mapper/vg1-opt    74M  7.7M   63M  12% /opt
/dev/mapper/vg1-tmp   291M   17M  260M   6% /tmp
/dev/mapper/vg1-usr   642M  492M  118M  81% /usr
/dev/mapper/vg1-var   295M   90M  190M  33% /var

Now, that is an extremely stripped down installation (only 260 RPMs), so
don't take the various file system sizes as guidelines of any kind.
But, what gets dumped into / doesn't change much with additional
packages being installed.
