I got a new Centos Server and I am not sure how to partition it; I also can only access Rescue mode to do it since it's from leaseweb com
I got 4 HDD's, right now only one shows up when:

# df -h
Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda2             884G  1.8G  836G   1% /
/dev/sda3             2.0G   36M  1.9G   2% /tmp
/dev/sda1              99M   18M   77M  19% /boot
tmpfs                 7.9G     0  7.9G   0% /dev/shm

my /fstab

LABEL=/                 /                       ext3    defaults        1 1
LABEL=/tmp              /tmp                    ext3    defaults        1 2
LABEL=/boot             /boot                   ext3    defaults        1 2
tmpfs                   /dev/shm                tmpfs   size=1024m        0 0
devpts                  /dev/pts                devpts  gid=5,mode=620  0 0
sysfs                   /sys                    sysfs   defaults        0 0
proc                    /proc                   proc    defaults        0 0
LABEL=SWAP-sda5         swap                    swap    defaults        0 0

What's the next step? How can I partition them to look like this:

Partition	 Description	 Typical size
/	 24 Gb
swap	 Paging partition for the Linux operating system	 2 times RAM
/vz	 Partition to host OpenVZ templates and Virtual Private Servers	 all the remaining space on the hard disk
