The hard drive usage is very high. Specifically, the service stopped because of it last night. What can be done to limit it? My other question is, what causes the decrease in occupied space, and why is the trash size so large? Is this normal? There are too many small files on the hard drive (million…

[{2A320F7D-EBF7-45EB-9016-299FD4445B4C}] [paint3] The last few days only, as I deleted the log content, it was almost 10GB already. Does regular defragmentation cause any problems? Specifically, the entire disk is completely fragmented. I would move the database to an SSD, could you help with …

The regular defragmentation would keep your filesystem fast, so the node shouldn’t crash because of a failed check. However, on the photo of your logs there is an error, that it cannot open a database. I would recommend to check your disk for errors and fix them. You do not need to be a programmer …

The hard drive is not showing any errors; it’s in 100% condition. In my opinion, the reason it couldn’t read the database is that it is under so much load at that moment. Do the highlighted files in the picture belong to the database? Should I copy these to the SSD drive? [{8B62ADCA-5D82-4013-833F…

Yes, all files with the *.db extension are databases. You need to copy/move them to SSD when the node is stopped. You also need to specify a new path to the databases with the storage2.database-dir: parameter in your config.yaml file, save it and start the node. You should not have errors in your l…

is this correct? [paint4] or storage2.database-dir: C:\Program Files\Storj\database

Both should work. However, it’s better to have it with quotes, because the path contains the space.

Unfortunately, it didn’t work. If I make a modification in this line, the service fails to start and gives an error. I tried with and without quotes. The path is correct. Could it be a permissions issue? I will try putting it on another SSD drive that is not a system partition.

So it’s as if it can’t find the database files, and that’s why it can’t start. This must be the issue for sure.

Please make sure, that the database files in this folder. You also need to change the owner to the SYSTEM user, it should have write, delete and edit permissions.

Unfortunately, we were still unable to transfer it. The permissions are in order. The database is not visible. The service crashed again at 4 a.m. today
