Move data storage

is it possible move the data storage location to a different drive? perhaps even an external USB? If so, can you point me in the right direction?

Thanks.

With data storage you mean rrds?

If yes, backup your existing rrds and mount the new drive as the rrd folder with the right user/group and permissions.

Thank you for the response, now for a follow up question…

Does it make sense to just move the rrds, or should I move the DB as well? My goal is to separate the data from the OS.

Thoughts?

Depends on why you are doing it.

Whats your motivation for splitting in different drives?
