Sun 100/150 Installation Manual

Partitions 'a' and 'b' were sized during the disk-labelling phase of diag, above; they are 7.7 and
16.3 MBytes respectively. The minimum configuration provided by ,etup then allocates 17
MBytes for / pub, 4 MBytes for each client's paging area, and then equally subdivides the
remaining disk space for each client's file system. These minimum values are bare minimums;
we suggest
us~ng
them only if you have to (for example, to fit two clients on an 84-MByte disk).
The default values noted above are much more livable partition sizes.
If you want to include the files containing the online manual pages, demos, or games, the public
partition must be increased by the following amounts:

If you want to allocate equal amounts of disk space to each client, read through the subsection,
Patla
S:
Standard Server Configuration. This path allows you to select the size of the public
partition, and a size for a standard paging partition which will be given to each client. The
remaining disk space will be divided equally among the clients as their file system area. Note
that if you use this path, yOl1 must put / pub on the first disk you configure.
To assign different amounts of disk space to clients, read through the subsection, Patla 9: Non-
,tandard Server Configuration. This path allows you to select the size of the public partition,
each client's paging area, and each client's file system area. This path also allows you to put
/ pub on a disk other than your first disk configured. Since the path for establishing a non-
standard system configuration is slightly more complex than the other two paths, it requires
some pre-planning. We have therefore included two copies of a worksheet which will help you
consolidate the information you need before using ,etup, as well as one sample completed
worksheet to use as a guide. PLEASE complete the worksheet before attempting configuration.
