Use an additional Linode volume

[SamGreenwood]

Is there a way to get cloudron to use an additional Linode volume?

@SamGreenwood that's a totally different subject, start a new thread.

OK, I moved this to a separate thread from https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/6811/how-do-i-install-extensions.

@SamGreenwood can you tell us more about the use case? Have you seen https://docs.cloudron.io/volumes/ ?

@girish I got it connected. How do I move apps to it?

@SamGreenwood take a look in the CLoudron App configuration UI under storage, where you can [Move Data].

@robi What's the mount's location? it won't move anything when I try to move it to whatever /mnt/ address it has when I open the file manager.

@SamGreenwood that depends on where you mounted it adding the volume. Check the Volumes section of your Cloudron config UI.

@robi It would be /content of name column/ correct? I can't tell if any of the apps I attempted to move are actually in the volume,

@SamGreenwood please give us more context via screenshots of what you're looking at.

In general cloudron won't allow you to map volumes if they're not there, or move storage to the wrong mount points.
