I’m placing the dbpath of Mongodb inside the mounted volume in a droplet.
My dataset size at a time snapshot is 95GB.
I’ve resized the volume from 100GB to 200GB
Then resize the partition following this guilde
After resize it worked… For a while.
But at some point, After I simultaneously insert >50GB within a couple of hours, The whole data was lost, and free space get back to 100% which is 200GB…
Anyone has encountered this situation?
This happened to me seconds time in a day.
I’m not even sure if this is the issue with DO volume or MongoDB.
This is very frustrating. I feel so lucky this is not the production server but feel unable to trust… I don’t know DO or Mongo…

Hi there,
If you run df -h do you see the volume still mounted on the Droplet?
Also, do you see any errors in the Monogo log after running the large insert?
Best,
Bobby
