Question Mismatch between Advanced Monitoring (disk) and files on the server

[Penge58]

Hello

I have a problem that makes me confused.
I am running on a Debian VPS

I got 2 disks. One disk is 90 GB SDD and the other disk is a HDD at 200 GB.
The second disk is mounted at /disk2/
When I go to disk2 via SSH I see that all files (prestashop files) are saved at /disk2/mydomain.no/httpdocs/
So that is fine. That is were I want it since the capacity is 200 GB, if I have mounted that HDD correctly.

However when I go into Advanced Monitoring and disk I see that it is the "/" partition that fills up and that is the SSD disk (90GB)
See the attached images.

Anyone know what I have done wrong ?
Files seems to be on the correct disk but Advanced Monitoring shows the 90 GB disk for the files

Hi Penge58,

Since it is another hardware disk that has another partition and is mounted to a different directory, have you tried to click "Detect hardware changes"? Graphs for that disk/partition should be shown as separate graphs.

Let me know if it does not work.

Hello and thank you for your reply.

Sorry for the delay from me, I have been away the whole day.
Yes detecting hardware was the first thing I tried. It reports: No change.

And PLESK had already detected my second drive (HDD) but it seems that the name it's given is /data/ and not disk2 as I gave it during mounting.
The name is not so important to me. The important is that I want PLESK to use the HDD ( /data/ ) as the disk for saving all files.
As you see from the screenshot the SSD is not almost full. That is why I want to use the HDD as the primary drive for saving files.

What is strange though is that when I go to terminal I see /disk2/ and all the files seems to be saved there but on th Advanced Monitor it looks like they are saved on "/" which is only 90 + MB
I feel that is strange....

I found a procedure which seems to be promising.

How do I make use of my data-disk for my Plesk data files? - SimplerCloud Pte Ltd

I think I will try this one.

I have managed to solve this using this procedure:

I thought this was fixed and that all new files was stored in the /data partition but when I check not I see that this is not the case.
As you see from the image it for some reason starts to fill partition "/" again and its soon reaching its limits.
I don't really understand this.

Please ignore my previous message.
It was the automatic backup that start to fill up the partition "/"
