I just installed MineOS Debian on my dedicated server with 500GB of storage. I began uploading my server backups on old host which is 20GB and it stopped. Now says 94.8% out of space. How can I increase MineOS storage on my dedi?
MineOS’s HDD usage is just a simple indicator of how much space it sees available on the partition that your minecraft files are saved onto.
The vast majority of installations use only one partition, but it depends on how you set it up. Regardless, you should instead use the command line tools to get the most accurate, most useful results, which will break it up into partitions: the df command
:~/mineos-node$ df
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/willonubuntu--vg-root 12992024 1689196 10619820 14% /
none 4 0 4 0% /sys/fs/cgroup
udev 1013816 4 1013812 1% /dev
tmpfs 205012 376 204636 1% /run
none 5120 0 5120 0% /run/lock
none 1025052 0 1025052 0% /run/shm
none 102400 0 102400 0% /run/user
/dev/sda1 240972 36996 191535 17% /boot
This should give you the authoritative answer of what your HDD situation is and you can then do some more digging to find out what is using up all your space.
MineOS will put its files in /var/games/minecraft. Do you have one large root partition or did you (during the installation of Debian) opt to have multiple partitions?
The way you would “increase” the space MineOS has access to is to ensure that there just is enough space on your partition, so it’s either your drive is full or your paritition is full and you’ll need to do some resizing.
