Support intro
Usecase:
- Nextcloud on a local server with four SMB shares
- integration of local shares via External Storage support → SMB/CIFS
- cronjob every night:
- files:scan --all
- preview:generate-all
=> So far so good!
I have an external server in another city, where I need to transfer some files sometimes. This server has WebDAV shares. But I am not interested in these files in detail. Most of the time I just upload files.
Need:
- Integration of one of these shares into my Nextcloud Instance
BUT:
- I dont want them to be scanned
- I dont want to create previews for this share
=> This server is HUGE. This would increase my Database by Factor 10 and I dont need these files in my database.
Any Ideas how to do this?
