Storage problem

Posted by James

I have a huge green Naz 4800. I put Ubuntu on it and I have spark box working on there, but I do not know how to make the data store on my raid drive. I already have a volume built on it. How do I mount it to spark box?

Nothing's broken — this is just telling SparkBox where to keep your stuff, and it's two quick steps. First, mount the RAID volume in Ubuntu so it has a folder. Run lsblk and paste what it shows (it lists your drives) — I'll give you the exact mount command for yours. Then open your settings file with sudo nano /opt/sparkbox/.env, find the line SBDATADIR= and change it to a folder on that mounted drive, like SBDATADIR=/mnt/raid/sparkbox-data. Save, then run sudo sparkbox up. SparkBox moves your movies, photos and books over to the RAID for you.
