Trying to use block storage with my instance for Jellyfin
Hello all,
I have a Dedicated server setup with easypanel and Jellyfin installed with it. I added 640gb of block storage too the dedicated server as a secondary storage block but was unable to get jellyfin to recognize the block storage pool. It would be great for anyone that has a better idea of how I would be able too get jellyfin to read that block storage pool which I have setup with the following commands (see below):
Create the filesystem:
mkfs.ext4 "/dev/disk/by-id/scsi-0Linode_Volume_testvolume"
Create the mount point for the storage block:
mkdir "/mnt/testvolume"
Mounted the storage block volume:
mount "/dev/disk/by-id/scsi-0Linode_Volume_testvolume" "/mnt/testvolume"
The fourth line is (Optional) from what I was told on the phone with Linode support staff (Thanks to Sofia for helping me with this).
When I try to mount the block volume:
/dev/disk/by-id/scsi-0Linode_Volume_testvolume" "/mnt/testvolume
it doesn't work.
Jellyfin can't seem to read the block storage location seen above.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Mike

I may have found my solution and I am waiting for Easypanel to reboot my Jellyfin Server Instance too see if the mount point I added in will actually work.
