So I am in the process of upgrading some drives in my server, specifically my SSDs where I have the DBs for a few nodes stored. however, one node the DB directory is empty. node is running fine.

Figured I just have a mapping issue, but when I go into the terminal of the node and I go to /app/dbs its empty there too. Where else should I be looking?

Are you running node in the container? Post the startup command.

Default database directory is config/storage.
