Re: [Observium] Moving logs and rrds to another partition?

You forgot to chown and chmod the mount point, but yes, sure that works. It's just a file path, nothing cares where it is physically :-)

Can I move entire DB to another disk?

Like this? :

1. Stop the daemons
2. Rename the DB folder "mv /var/lib/mysql /var/lib/mysql-tmp"
3. Recreate the folder "mkdir /var/lib/mysql"
4. Mount the new disk to the new folder "mount -t ext4 /dev/sdb1 /var/lib/mysql" (put in fstab after)
5. Copy the files from the old folder to the new folder (cp mysql-tmp/* mysql/)
6. Restart the daemons.

And voila???

Thanks,
