TrueNAS Scale NextCloud installation doc unclear /mnt/tank/nextcloud/opt

Apps and Virtualization

Hi there!

today I followed the official NextCloud installation doc for TrueNAS Scale.

Unfortunately step “b.” is not very clear where “/mnt/tank/nextcloud/opt” needs to be mounted to.
I simply did /opt but this is empty
Mount path in pod: /opt
Host path: /mnt/tank/nextcloud/opt

What is correct and what is the purpose of opt?

I don’t see any purpose for it at all. The page you link seems to suggest that it’s somehow related to the Nextcloud data storage, but that page is also clear that the data is going in nextcloud/data.

Yeah, but why do they mention it in the official docs if it doesn’t do anything?
