Re: [hylafax-users] another partition for /var/spool/hylafax/docq

Hi !

As my /var partition was too small for storing my faxes I tried to mount another one into /var/spool/hylafax/docq with "mount --bind" after moving all files to the new partition But it's not working as if Hylafax was recognizing that it's another partition and refused to
write on it :(

What are the error, exactly? What hylafax says?


I checked the permissions but it's not the problem...

Any idea/solution ?

Thanks for your help !

This configuration that you are trying to build is the default configuration for my servers, so I don't know what are your problem, but I think that isn't an hylafax problem. I normally create a partition somewhere, copy all the hylafax directory do the new partition and modify fstab:

fdisk newdisk (create the partition and create its fs (ext3?))
mount /dev/new_partition /mnt_temp
cp -a /var/spool/hylafax /mnt_temp (mv /var/spool/hylafax /mnt_temp)
umount /dev/new_partition
modify the /etc/fstab:
/dev/new_partition	/var/spool/hylafax	auto	0	0
mount /dev/new_partition
/etc/init.d/hylafax restart

That's all!

If this doesn't work, post the errors!!
