Hi

I've got a P4 server running RouterOS in a 128 Mb flash disk with UserManager.

The UserMan logs fill up the disk and there is no easy way to control
or delete them once it's full.

Can I add an IDE hard drive and store all the logs there while keeping
my system in the flash disk?

If so? How?

If i can't, how should i procede? What would be the best way to move
my system to a drive without losing anything and in a live enviroment?

Thank you very much,
Santiago.

What you want is quite possible in ROS but you might not be able to do it in a live environment unless you have a P4 computer that support hot swapping of hard drives.

Go ahead and add an IDE Hard drive to your system. Make sure the HDD is not configured as primary drive, that privilege is reserved for what ever drive housing the ROS system files.

Now log into your router with Winbox, goto "/store disk" and format the new HDD. Then goto /store and copy the existing userman from the primary drive to the secondary drive and activate the secondary drive version.

Will do so.

Thanks !
