okay, so i've got this file server. given my
space and money constraints, it's a pseudo-worm,
running off a single 36GB SCSI disk. said disk is
nearing capacity.

as one might imagine, i'd like to add capacity to
my file server. how do i do so? i'm particularly
interested in how to do so without loss of all my
history, and, if possible, without wasting a disk
of size equal to my current fs.

i've heard tell on this list of people upgrading
file servers, changing jukeboxes and retaining the
history, and so on. the common response seems to
be "it's not too hard." great. so please describe
the procedure to someone interested in doing it.

the above is a hypothetical question. i do actually
have the disk and box, but havn't set up the file
server yet. i want to know the process for upgrades
before i set up my file server with _any_ set size
for storage. so... anyone?
