suggestion:

"bodyPath" should be an absolute filesystem path to wherever the
root-level of your content-storage tree is going to be. (something
like /var/sakai/content or /Volumes/sakai_volume would do nicely.)

"bodyVolumes" is a comma-separated list of subdirectories under the
path indicated by "bodyPath" which might in the future become
network-mounted "share"s. You could try
"a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i,j,k,l,m,n,o,p,q,r,s,t,u,v,w,x,y,z" for example,
which would give you 26 subdirs that you could later split out among
different load-sharing file servers.

Try that paradigm and see if it gets you over the hump.
