Hi Lance,

I had some experiences with a single server deployment, and the bottom line
is, use LVM for your partitions.
Glance will take lots os space, so I would recommend creating separate LVM
for its images. Also, you can create one LVM for the instances. Size
depends on how many images you will have, and how many instances will
intend to launch. Because of that, you should start will smaller partitions
wich you can extend when needed.
I think you can't go much wrong following these guidelines. At least it is
working for me.

Cheers,
Roni.
