My NFS share is on a 1 TB NAS with about 600GB free. We have a dedicated mysql server in a different virtual machine with it's own storage. I have assumed that the mysql database for piler is mostly metadata and will not be as large as the file store. Maybe I'm wrong.
you are right, mysql stores mostly metadata only. For the demo site 1.5 million messages in the archive the piler database takes ~7 GB. With a config you mentioned the only data you should take is the sphinx index files in /var/piler/sphinx. They are a few files only, however their sizes are proportional with the archive size. Janos
