Ensure /srv Located On Separate Partition
Unknown Severity
If a file server (FTP, TFTP...) is hosted locally, create a separate partition for
/srv
at installation time (or migrate it later using LVM). If
/srv
will be mounted from another system such as an NFS server, then creating a separate partition is not necessary at installation time, and the mountpoint can instead be configured later.
