Does anyone have access to documentation on HP recommended file system sizes and mounts?

I'm looking for something more along the lines of,

Filesystem kbytes used avail %used Mounted on

It depends on the size of the system, which apps are running, how many users, and the size of the vg00 disks.

Historically, for me at least, the following mount points are always way to small: /, /var, /opt and sometime /home.

/ is a critcal one in that it difficult to make larger after the fact, and user will "inadvertently" store files in it. 300 MB is a good size, in my opinion.

/var filling up is one of the common causes of system problems - if you got the space - 1GB

/opt should be 500 MB or greater.

/home depends on the number of users, and how much they store on the server....

Depends on the OS version and type (MCOE/TCOE etc.) you are using.

In the "read before installing" it has the "defaults".

Sorry -not the "read before" but the "installing and updating"

Example, page 29 of this for 11.31:

DCE - what size disk are you using?

Here's a VSE Host on 11.23:
