I assume /var will hold user mail dirs.
Yes, in /var/vmail
Do /var/ and /snaps reside on the same RAID array, physical disks?
Yes - vmware host is a Dell R515, with ESXi installed to mirrored
internal SATA drives, with 8 drives in RAID 10 for all of the VMs. All
storage is this local storage (no SAN/NAS).
How about the other filesystems I snipped? If you have a large number
of filesystems atop the same RAID, some of them being XFS, this could
create a head thrashing problem under high load increasing latency and
thus response times.
Ouch...
This ESXi host also hosts 2 server 2008R2 vms...
