Soon, I'll need to increase the storage capacity of my Lemmy server. I use a Digital Ocean VPS running Debian 11. I don't really need to increase the RAM, CPU, or other core system resources so I planning on adding some block storage to my VPS. My question is: How can I tell Lemmy/Pict-rs to store/retrieve new data here without losing my existing data?
Assume the volume will be positioned on /mnt/vol-1
.
Thanks in advance!
Heads up, the new Lemmy update is very aggressive with system resources. Namely, lots of IDLE PG connections left over for no apparent reason. Make sure you adjust your docker-compose.yml accordingly
