By the way, how do I configure mattermost to store data in another drive that is on the server?

You’re running with docker, aren’t you? :slight_smile: Check Environment variables - Mattermost documentation

Deployed using the omnibus solution. It seems that /var/opt/mattermost/data cannot be accessed due to access right. I’ve changed the Local Storage Directory to ./data and it worked. However, I ultimately want to have the data stored on a RAID storage on the server, which is not the drive which the system and mattermost is installed. Can anyone provide instruction on how to do that?

Thank you

Usually, /opt/mattermost/data is where binary objects get stored. You can make that a mountpoint to a NAS or filer or NFS mount or ???

Also: File storage system - Mattermost documentation might help
