# # # This file specifies the various partitions, their sizes and the # protocol they belong to. Use this file in conjunction with the # hosting.config file. # # Each line consists of a tag value pair. # partition= scheme= size= # # partition_number can be any value between 1 and 255. # This limits the maximum number of partitions to 255. # Partition number 0 is reserved for the special free partition. # Each line MUST have a distinct partition number. # # scheme is either 'http' or 'mixt'. All requests for streaming # media type go to the mixt partitions, while all other kinds of # requests go to the http partitions. # # partition_size can either be specified in percentage of the total # cache space or absolute value. It must be a multiple of 128 Megabytes, # with 128 Megabytes being the smallest size possible. If specified in # percentage, the size is rounded down to the closest multiple of # 128 Megabytes. A partition can be as big as the whole cache. # Each partition is striped across several disks to # achieve parallel I/O. For example, if there are 4 disks, # a 1 Gigabyte partition will have 256 Megabytes on each # disk (assuming each disk has enough free space available). # # For example, to split the cache evenly between http and streaming, use # partition=1 scheme=http size=50% # partition=2 scheme=mixt size=50% # # To create one partition of size 10% of the total cache space and # another 1 Gig partition, # partition=1 scheme=http size=10% # partition=2 scheme=http size=1024
