We have volume sizes up to 75GB, although we don't have very many of those. Our user volumes (students/staff/faculty) have a base quota of 1GB, and can raise it at whim, with a charge for usage, not quota. Our partition sizes range from 1GB (old disks, going away, mounted on a for pay basis for cheaper disk at the time) to 25GB (older servers, based on what could fit on a 20/40 DLT), to 50GB (three/four partitions on a 160/320 SDLT), and our new servers are currently partitioned with 300GB & 600GB partitions, although that's still in flux, somewhat. -Tracy _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
