It would be lovely to deploy the new WMIT server to host Znuny, since Wikimedia IT is trying to move from a legacy OTRS 5 to Znuny.[1]
The server name will be manoscritto, arbitrarily chosen because consensus didn't particularly emerge from our talk page.[2]

I was configuring additional block storage to be mounted on /opt but then I realized than after all 50G is fine (since block storage does not support automatic snapshots).
If you will need more disk space:
Option 1: buy block storage again and attach it:
$ lsblk NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT sda 8:0 0 50G 0 disk |-sda1 8:1 0 49.9G 0 part / |-sda14 8:14 0 3M 0 part `-sda15 8:15 0 124M 0 part /boot/efi sdb 8:16 0 60G 0 disk $ mount | grep /dev/sdb (nothing) $ # initialize partition $ fdisk /dev/sdb Welcome to fdisk (util-linux 2.36.1). Changes will remain in memory only, until you decide to write them. Be careful before using the write command. Device does not contain a recognized partition table. Created a new DOS disklabel with disk identifier 0xcd1ed106. Command (m for help): n Partition type p primary (0 primary, 0 extended, 4 free) e extended (container for logical partitions) Select (default p): Using default response p. Partition number (1-4, default 1): First sector (2048-125829119, default 2048): Last sector, +/-sectors or +/-size{K,M,G,T,P} (2048-125829119, default 125829119): Created a new partition 1 of type 'Linux' and of size 60 GiB. Command (m for help): w The partition table has been altered. Calling ioctl() to re-read partition table. Syncing disks. $ # check $ fdisk -l ... Disk /dev/sdb: 60 GiB, 64424509440 bytes, 125829120 sectors /dev/sdb1 2048 125829119 125827072 60G 83 Linux $ # initialize filesystem $ mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdb1 $ blkid ... /dev/sdb1: UUID="asdasdasdasdasdasdasd" BLOCK_SIZE="4096" TYPE="ext4" ... $ editor /etc/fstab ... UUID=asdasdasdasdasdasdasd /opt ext4 nofail 0 0 $ mount -a
Then remember to setup some manual snapshots.
Option 2: Scale up to the next flavor, which however costs twice.
