Hello Forum,

I have create a new web and mail server using hestia panel.
But i want that all the files/directories related to web (like websites, websites data, settings, etc) and mail (like mail accounts, emails, data of all emails, etc) are store in different drive which i mount.
I didn’t ask for how to (mounting drivers, link directories, etc). i just want to know which directories/locations hestia panel use to store all this data so i mount that directories to another drive.
Please someone give me the directories location/paths where all these data are store so i can mount them in another drive if possible.
Please help.

Thankyou,
Chris

/home/usernamehere/
Mail dir has the emails
Web directory has all your sites
Conf directory has all your settings/configuration for the sites.

You can navigate each and find more.

Thanks @nu01

Means if I just mount my user account directory (/home/username/) then everything above are mount to other drive.
Beside this there is nothing else location/directory left where these data (mail accounts, mails, web sites) store right?

Thanks again for help.

Ideally yes. But I guess it will just be a duplication and eating up extra space.

@nu01 You are right then during os installation I use different drive for “/home” then I think all data of all users include these data files only goes to 2nd drive right? Or am I wrong?.

Correct. That would be the base during the OS installation itself.
