I'm attempting to free up space on my devices within my cluster. My plan is to migrate all my container files and local storage requirements into a NFS server within my environment. I am just trying to dry run my ideas here before implementation to see if there is anything that I could run into which could cause my systems to become unresponsive. 1. set my NFS within each device. 2. stop k3s on conductor & nodes. 3. rsync my data into the NFS from each server from /var/lib/rancher/k3s/data 4. update if applicable the k3s.yaml file the new default data root directory. Would there be any "got ya's" from attempting this?

No. Don't put /var/lib/rancher on NFS. It will perform poorly. Kine/etcd and contained are designed to run on traditional filesystems like ext3 or xfs, not on a shared network filesystem.

Thanks for the info, unfortunately I'm running out of space on my pi's any alternatives to free up some space outside of adding more drives

Its your hardware, but I don't think you're going to enjoy the results. I just boot mine off a 1tb nvme drive in a usb3 enclosure. Works great.

🤣 Well it was worth a shot. I'll have to reconsider how I'm storing and running my data locally then. Appreacite your help @creamy-pencil-82913

Uh, how about using a second storage class ?
