Actually rinvold.nu have been running on ec2 for a while but haraldringvold.com is now also pointing here. I haven’t moved completely over for several reasons, but the main thing was that I hadn’t found a good way to make larger volumes.
I tried to have /home on another volume, but php (or suphp spesific) got very much slower so it is not an option untill I figure it out. Which till this point I still haven’t so I had to find something else and it was this great post by Eric Hammond!
It showes you how to create a larger volume, how to replace the old volume and how to expand the filesystem. I have made the commands in Eric’s post into a script I can run every time I need more space on my server. It requires the ec2 tools to be set up on the computer. It will also take down the server for a few minuets, but I just have to live with that for now.
If anyone have a fix for my PHP problems when I move /home to another volume please let me know! Here is a link to the script. All glory to Eric that has made 90% of the code.
