Vesta Control Panel - Forum

Hallo,

I have mounting problem, I am using VPS from scaleway and it has on primary drive with 50Gb and additional drives which you can attach an mount, I folowed their instructions for mounting as described here
https://www.scaleway.com/docs/attach-an ... ng-server/

now, I can fill second driver (150GB) automatically with for example backups of vestacp's accounts but when first drive (where /home is located) is full, it doesn't continue mounting on second drive, for example I can not create any more accounts..
Can some one help how to solve this, for example when first drive is full..new mails to continue arriving on second drive...and to be able to create more accounts..

I am using Centos 7

Why you don't use two drives for /home and /backup ?
You can "mount" your so-called disks in /home and /backup

That is what I need to mount the two drives for /home, how can I do that, thank you for your answer very much

You can not mount 2 drives on /home.

Your question about mounting is also not really Vesta related. I think you will have more success in forums dedicated to Centos.

About your problem... There are ways to make links from user dirs of the first drive to your second drive. And maybe it is also possible to change configuration of mailprograms and other programs to use maps on the second drive. You can for example put all maps containing files for your webserver /var/www on the second drive /drive2/www. But this will cost you a lot of time and will maybe interfere with things Vesta is doing with configuration files (like overwriting your custom settings with Vesta settings).

I think the most easy way is to get a VPS with a first drive with a normal size, and move everything to your new VPS. It will probably take less time than solving this problem in another way.

So, if I have one vps with 2 drives and if the first ine is just 50gb and the second is also 50GB, I can only use just 50gb for creating accounts, there is no way afterr filling up the first one automaticcally to start filling up second drive?

yes, there is no easy way to do this. Why do you not just exand your first drive? This should be possible, so you can also expand it in your os and your problem is solved.

But, how to extend first drive? Cand this extension be done with connecting both drives and making them working as one partition?

Seriously, a new VPS will save you a lot of time.

I tried installing Vesta on Scaleway and is not possible, not only vesta but cPanel, Kloxo.etc and none of them worked, seems like their OS have something missing so you can't use it!

Do not use ARM, use x86-x64
