ESX partitioning explained?

$

Hi guys,

 

 

 

 

 

I'm about to upgrade from ESX server 3.0.1 to 3.0.2.  I have been told to do a fresh install (we have a HA cluster) and to modify the system partitions to make them larger.  The recommendations i have been given are:

 

 

/boot   256 MB

/home   4096 MB

/tmp    4096 MB

/usr    4096 MB

/var    4096 MB

/opt    4096 MB

swap    2048 MB

vmkcore 100 MB

/       Fill  

 

 

My question is how do set these up?  Some of them on our current system just look like directories?  Are they supposed to all be mount points?  Also, should they be a fixed size or should they be expandable?  Any help would be appreciated

 

 

Thanks
