Sorry if there is an answer to this but all support, I found on this form is geared towards a Linux, I am running NextCloud AIO on Docker within Windows. I am new to this, so I wanted to use an OS I am familiar with
Right now, I have everything running on an SSD but I want to move all the files I am storing on a hard drive. How should I change it so NextCloud would point to the new HDD to store my files? I already have over 100GB of files, and I would prefer not to start this from scratch again.
I found some articles (linked below) but they give commands and examples which appear to be in Linux, but I’m using windows so I have no idea what the equivalent step would be
Another solution would be stopping all containers from the aio interface, creating a backup, removing and recreating the mastercontainer with -e NEXTCLOUD_DATADIR="/run/desktop/mnt/host/c/ncdata" then restore the most recent backup and afterwards starting the containers again from the aio interface. In that case you should then delete the content of /var/lib/docker/volumes/nextcloud_aio_nextcloud_data/_data/ manually since the data would be duplicated otherwise.
Sorry I am new to this so I may need a step-by-step guide, where would I run the “-e NEXTCLOUD_DATADIR=”/run/desktop/mnt/host/c/ncdata" " command? When i put it in cmd, I get an error saying “‘-e’ is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file”
What I have done so far is copy the ncdata folder from my c drive to my new g drive so the new path I would imagine be " “NEXTCLOUD_DATADIR=/run/desktop/mnt/host/g/ncdata”.
I would imagine I would need to remove the master container and create it again but update the path to the f drive from the c drive, but how would I update the path and rebuild the master container? also how would i back up the master container before removing it? Would removing and rebuilding the master container make me lose all my settings?
*edit I forgot I had to download ubuntu LTS on windows to set this up, so I tried that as well and got a similar error, saying “-e: command not found”
*edit 2: I think I finally figured out what I was supposed to do. Took way too long to realize. I made a backup, deleted master container and then ran this command in cmd (don’t forget to add the “^” at the end of your line for the new path. I spent too long trying to figure that out)
making sure to add the line you mentioned in the install run command to recreate the master container. It looks like its booting up now I hope this works
*edit 3: everything looks great, thank you for the help.
