I generally make the OS raid an LVM volume, then allocate /, /var, swap, and maybe /home out of that. depending on what I'm doing, the data raid is probably also a LVM volume group, and would have things like /var/www, /var/lib/pgsql/9.0/data, as logical volumes, possibly /home, depending on usage patterns. but, my workloads are often disk IO intensive. Your Mileage May Vary. Objects In Mirror May Be Closer Than They Appear.
