Hi Nicolai, thank you for your response, but the question was focused to the media server (with Linux) that we need install and configure, the StoreOnce has its own operating system and it don't enter in this discussion.
This new linux media server will have RHEL 8.3 and we must install the HPE NBU OST plugin to integrate with de StoreOnce appliance, so, the question was what is the recommended filesystem structure for the linux RHEL media server, for example:
Create various mount points under LVM physical volumen(pv)/vg/lv:
/ 50GB
/usr/openv/ 100GB
/home 50GB
etc...
Thank you for your help.

While 200 GB might be a bit much as has been mentioned by others, definitely give yourself some elbow room and don't trim it down too much.
Maybe 50 GB for / and another 50-75 GB for /usr/openv/ . Remember it's not just about storage for the binaries and such, at some point in the future you're going to want to crank logging up all the way, maybe for several days running (long weekend?), to troubleshoot some problem. Depending on the issue that could generate some decent-sized NBU logs and it'd be nice not to fill up the entire filesystem with them & crash your other backups. =)
Likewise, core dumps are useful troubleshooting tools on occasion and it's nice to have room to generate them.
Food for thought.
