Is there any way to disable gzipping backups? Because I know I’m going to have to eventually increase the size of my Digital Ocean server, but since that essentially doubles the monthly cost I’m putting it off as long as I can. And after the latest update (when it switched to the new postgres), it…

Have you run ./launcher cleanup To delete the old database? Another thing you can do is use block storage to add space.

Wait, all that is needed is to add the --gzip flag to tar and it would avoid the issue altogether?

[画像] pfaffman: Have you run … cleanup I had not, and that indeed gets back a nice chunk of space which will resolve my immediate problem. Switching to using the --gzip option still seems a very good idea. But at least I’ve put off doubling my monthly bill for another six months or more, so …

Block storage is pretty cheap, I think. You could use it for just backups or also uploads. I think it might be a bit tricky to see that the block storage gets used for the temporary space used to build the backup.

[画像] peternlewis: Can I use block storage just for the backups? Yes. It would be the same idea as I described for the uploads. The thing I can’t remember is where the temporary files get written. I think it may be in the backup logs. You’d just make sure that you have that directory mapped to…

I think you’d do something like volumes: - volume: host: /var/discourse/shared/standalone guest: /shared - volume: host: /var/discourse/shared/dashboard/log/var-log guest: /var/log - volume: host: /bigExtraSpace/tmp guest: /shared/tmp - volume: host…
