Help expanding storj node with windows install

[iDavros]

Hi,

Need some help expanding my storj node. I installed with the windows installer on a 2tb drive but only told the node to be 1tb. I’d now like to expand it to use the entire drive but not sure how to achieve this!

I’ve searched for the forums but only found info about how to do it with docker i think:

Expand storage on docker

docker run -d --restart unless-stopped -p 28967:28967 -p 14002:14002 -e WALLET=“MY_WALLET_ADDRESS” -e EMAIL=“my@email.com” -e ADDRESS=“xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:28967” -e BANDWIDTH=“40TB” -e STORAGE=“800GB” –mount type=bind,source="/root/.local/share/storj/identity/storagenode",destination=/app/identity –mount type=bind,source="/media/1tb/",destination=/app/config –name storagenode storjlabs/storagenode:beta The mount point is a second .raw disk image, that i will move with the proxmox …

But as I said I used the win installer. If I install docker can I then use the advice above or is there a specific way to do this with a windows install?

Thanks!

Hi Tim, welcome to the forums!

You can change parameters for your node by editing the config.yaml file. Instructions can be found here:

How do I change values like wallet address or storage capacity?

The parameter you should change is storage.allocated-disk-space:

Wow, nice and simple! Thanks!
