Hi all, i have went through the setup of immich trough docker-compose. This was done through dockge with the default setup and .env.
I have existing photos on my HDD and want to keep them there. However, jailmaker is running on the ssd with the app. How can i make sure that thumbnails and other are for stored on the SSD but that the origianls are still on the HDD?
#Docker-compose setup Jailmaker

So would it be as easy as configuring the correct .env files and if so, which ones?
should i for example use this script? https://github.com/Salvoxia/immich-folder-album-creator
currently on HDD? they are stored as : yyyy/mm/file.jpg . Seperately there is a RAW folder with all Raws. What to do with them?
Ant help guys?
guys? could someone please guide me a bit?
We cover this in the docs here: https://immich.app/docs/guides/custom-locations
Ignore the microservices portion
thank yo u
if i understand correctly:
UPLOAD_LOCATION= original files--> HDD
THUMB_LOCATION= smaller generated thumbnails --> SSD
It’s however you set it up based on the paths, but in the example, yes
Thank you, so once this is mapped, i can start by uploading the files which are in the Upload location?
If you already have files uploaded you need to move those folders all to the new locations
It won’t be done automatically
I mant uploaded to my server itself not in immich!
I would map the upload location to my orignals folder
and then upload everything in the upload folder
or should i create a seperate folder on the HDD, make that the upload location and upload all my files which are currently already on my server?
it's not at all clear what you're asking
No photos are uploaded to immich.
So there is the HDD with the origianl files, and ssd with the app. It is clear to me that i can map the upload location to the HDD and thumbs to SSD.
Should i now, upload the files which are already on the HDD and should that also by the UPLOAD Location in the env?
so i am still doubting how to do this
