I have a IBM server.

It has 2 * 70 GB of SCSI HDD lets say 70A and 70B.

I want to :

1) In 70A , I want to install VNOW 1.3.

2) In 70B, I want to dump all my recordings.

What I am thinking to Record all in 70A, then FTP or Transfer all to 70B and then delete all from 70A and then give an Access of 70B via FTP to download files.

How to do this ?

It would be much easier if you use mount points.

For example- mount the second hard disk, assuming with a single partition, as /recs.

If you need date directories for your recordings then set the FTP script to move them there, by setting ftp home directory in /recs/whatever. You may want to try a modified script, which deletes files when ftp-ing them:
http://www.vicidial.org/VICIDIALmantis/view.php?id=197

If you don't need date directories, then just point AST_CRON_audio_2_compress.pl to a symlink in the newly created /recs directory. In this case the FTP script becomes obsolete.

Getting the idea?
Modification of /etc/astguiclient.conf and apache.conf if you are using alias to access recordings may also be needed. Just giving you a rough idea to think on.
