What is the best strategy to add another storage to an existing virtual mail

Move some domains to the new storage and create symlinks ?

Thanks for any suggestions or tips !
Are you using Volume Management (VLM) on the system, or do you have regular
partitions mounted? Is there any RAID or other factors to consider . . in fact,
a few details about your system might help :)
~ James.
No LVM and the RAID is done in the SAN appliance.
My gut tells me that formatting a single huge 25TB partition is not the
best way to go. That's why I consider having two different LUN's on two
different SAN's mounted together as two directories. A fsck and a
recovery will work faster.
The only issue is distributing maildirs. across the two file systems.
