Make LVM snapshot default when no issues get reported

[szaimen]

This is just a reminder that we don't forget to make the LVM snapshot default when no issues get reported.

vm/nextcloud_install_production.sh

Line 68 in 39e64fe

check_command lvcreate --size 5G --name "NcVM-installation" ubuntu-vg

After we do this, everyone wil be able to use the built-in backup solution.

I'd say when development stopped on that part for some time because it's rock solid, then maybe. :)

[szaimen]

I'd say it is already pretty stable but yeah

We could do this for Ubuntu 22.04 making the OS disk 45 GB in size, or extend the drive so there's only 5 GB left and keep it 40 GB in total size.

Would that work?

From my side, yes 👍

Just tested on one of my prod instances. I don't think this is stable enough:

Logical volume ubuntu-vg/NcVM-snapshot is used by another device.

Honestly, I've never seen this issue. What did you do before this issue appeard?
Did you reinstall ubuntu from scratch and choosed to add the partition in the install script?

This way I'am running this setup since half a year or longer without any issue...

Or in other words: what are the steps to reproduce this issue?
