Storage Addons

Introduction

In case the base storage included in the Server's plan is not enough, you can always add more storage to your server as required at an additional cost of $0.2/GB per month. Note that AWS does not allow us to revert the storage added to a volume. So, if it turns out that you don't need the additional storage that's been added to your server, you can create a new server and move your sites over to the same.

Steps

1. Click on the + button adjacent to the server you want to add storage to

   
   

   
   

2. Select the amount of storage you want to add. Note that you can't add storage again for a period of 6 hours.

   
   

   
   

3. Select confirm to increase the storage

Before the addons were introduced, Frappe Cloud itself was handling the additional storage being added on the server. The system automatically adds additional storage as and when required in order to prevent downtimes and other issues (mainly redis) from happening. If you wish to opt-out of this feature, you can disable it following the below steps. Note that if you do choose to do this, the downtimes on the server will be ignored by the system.
