+1 for separate FS and not fill the VG. Given the host is dedicated to jenkins maybe use 80% of the free space (lvcreate -l 80%FREE)?

A different filesystem? To be > easily moved etc. all the data will be on /var/lib/jenkins (most of the data is keeping jobs config and builds history), do you think creating a new FS for it will be better than extending the current one? we should also keep in mind, that we might migrate this server to a VM in the future, so maybe it will be easier to keep all the data on on VG. > > At any rate, you should not, never, no, just give it the "maximum" > because you can. > > - - - > > So, my vote, create new filesystem, give it the estimated required > amount of disk you feel is needed.
