How do I set it up to use a mounted data disk in my azure ubuntu vm?

Did you check the FAQ & Troubleshooting section for answers to common questions and issues? Yes

Describe the issue I'm not very proficient with setting up services like this. I have a 1tb data drive mounted to /data but I don't know how to get the deployment to use it...

azureuser@lemmy:/mnt$ lsblk -o NAME,HCTL,SIZE,MOUNTPOINT | grep -i "sd" sda 0:0:0:0 30G ├─sda1 29.9G / ├─sda14 4M └─sda15 106M /boot/efi sdb 0:0:0:1 4G └─sdb1 4G /mnt sdc 1:0:0:0 1T └─sdc1 1024G /data

I made a previous deployment and I'm pretty sure it just used the os disk under / which only has 30gb.

Any help would be appreciated!

Unfortunately, as this script relies on Docker, I have no ability to automatically change the directory your data is mounted on. That is controlled by Docker, so your data goes to the Docker root directory.

If you want to explicitly change that, you will have to do some tinkering to change the Docker root directory. I can point you in the right direction, but that is as much as I can do sadly.

This should be what you need, though!

Cool, I think it is all working after changing the default docker volume directoy!

azureuser@lemmy:~/Lemmy-Easy-Deploy$ docker volume inspect lemmy-easy-deploy_pictrs_data [ { "CreatedAt": "2023-07-15T19:26:38Z", "Driver": "local", "Labels": { "com.docker.compose.project": "lemmy-easy-deploy", "com.docker.compose.version": "2.19.1", "com.docker.compose.volume": "pictrs_data" }, "Mountpoint": "/data/docker/volumes/lemmy-easy-deploy_pictrs_data/_data", "Name": "lemmy-easy-deploy_pictrs_data", "Options": null, "Scope": "local" } ]
