      I just got MC server running yesterday on a RPi 4 (4GB) with 32 GB drive. I'm not sure what settings could have caused this, but I've got to imagine I need to make some changes to the types of data that are stored or the frequency. Any insights would be appreciated. Thanks!

        @wint0178 I'm not sure what's going on, but I decided to stop the docker apps and then restart the Pi, it is stuck on a black screen with a single horizontal text cursor blinking in the upper left corner. I removed the ssd and thought I would try to clone it onto a larger ssd, but when I looked at the drive there is plenty of space, well over 10 GB on the 32 GB drive. Yet, when I checked the drive in file manager it said there was no space. Additionally, I got a warning from Google drive on the web browser that some features were not available due to lack of memory AND from Arduino IDE when I tried to compile a sketch, it said there was no space. It seems as though there is a very small partition on the drive that is set too small, but file manager was able to view it as a 32 GB drive. Any ideas?

        I am still hoping to simply clone to a 64 GB drive, but don't have the time before I leave for a family road trip.

          @wint0178 I have not experienced this kind of issue. check the filesystem. you can find the root cause. Please let us know your findings. You can check this after your family road trip 🙂

            @jkandasa I'm still not sure what happened. In the end, I decided to reformat the drive and start from scratch. I needed to write out some concise instructions for installing all of the software anyway and this was the right time to take care of that. Anyway, I have it installed again and running on the same drive with DDNS on my home router. I have port 8080 being forwarded to the http for my DDNS. I will monitor to see if something like this happens again, but this time I used the built-in SD Card Copier to make a copy of the drive after installing the server, maybe this will be a viable backup.

              @wint0178 You can use letsencrypt certification setup with https_acme to your DDNS setup, https://v2.mycontroller.org/docs/installation/advanced-installation/backend-configuration/
