About AWS EC2 root volume disk partitions

Asked 2 years ago, Updated 2 years ago, 170 views

The root volume of AWS EC2 is a single partition.
I would like to configure it as follows.

One reason is backup.
When I made a backup with EBS snapshots, I thought EBS was two because I wanted to separate / in the OS part and /home in the user data.

2 assumed disk full due to /var or /home.
This is because docker rmi was not possible when a large image was pulled to disk full by docker, etc., and EBS had to be increased and restarted.Also, I wanted to be able to get / and /var together during the backup, so I avoided separating them by EBS.

Do you have any good examples or ideas for AWS EC2's root volume disk partition?

/ and /home have different backup frequencies, so I think we have to separate EBS.EFS may now be an option.

For /var disk full, disk duota may be an option other than EBS or partitioning, and for xfs, disk quota can be set per directory, so /var can be set to 10GB or less.
