Volume resized, how does cloudron recognise it?

[ekevu123]

I have resized a volume which I use for an app externally, but how do I get cloudron to recognise the new size?

[msbt]

I think the disk space usage is being calculated every 6 hours. If the changes are visible on the server, Cloudron will also see them, but visible in the monitor only after that period of time (or if you click on the refresh icon)

This is a reasonable assumption, but it didn't work for me.

Can I perhaps re-mount it, so that it gets scanned again?

For context, I am using this block storage as the main data volume for Nextcloud, which is currently not working because the disk is full, although I resized it already.

[msbt]

if you run df on the server and it shows 100%, it probably didn't resize the fs automatically and you need to resize it manually

@ekevu123 yes first see with basic linux tools like df if the filesystem on the disk was enlarged also to fit the disk as such. If not the case, then you may have to run resize2fs on it.

See https://docs.digitalocean.com/products/volumes/how-to/increase-size/ as an example

I tried something similar and seemingly have resized the partition. It is also mounted according to the terminal.
It also shows as active in volumes in Cloudron.

However, Nextcloud doesn't start yet. Also, oddly, the disk usage in System Info doesn't update. It keeps loading indefinitely. Can I reset that somehow?

When I go inside Nextcloud under storage, it oddly seems to allow me to move the data to the volume where the data is supposed to be already. Not sure why that is, maybe because I had to unmount and remount the volume in the process?

Clicking the refresh button on top of the System Info section will give you the latest results

It is greyed out as well while this whole tile keeps loading

@ekevu123 it means something is stuck when returning du output . If you click on the logs button on the top left, you will see what it is stuck at.

I am not really sure what to look for, but I get something like this:
2024-06-24T19:30:00.080Z box:system checkDiskSpace: disk space checked. out of space: no

Unfortunately, I don't see any error.

This was resolved overnight - I am not sure how, but now the volume shows again normally.

However, it opened up a new problem with Nextcloud, which I have posted in a new thread there.
