If the server is running any distro of linux/unix, /home should already
exist.
If not, you can make the dir under / . (the easy way)

If you'd like to set up a separate partition called /home, you'll need
to find the room on either the current drive (or add another drive)
then use a partition utility (fdisk, gparted, etc) to setup the
partition, add the file system of choice, and mount it.
