Disk and Storage Planning
Plan persistent database, media, backup, and temporary installation storage for AutoCore.
Storage must cover PostgreSQL data, media binaries, installation state, release artifacts, backups, temporary restore verification, and logs. The current source does not enforce a fixed disk minimum.
Authoritative versus derived storage
PostgreSQL contains transactional marketplace state. Media binaries require a provider-specific backup boundary. Meilisearch documents are derived and can be rebuilt from PostgreSQL when the source and reindex path are available. Redis holds transient cache and queue state and is not a substitute for a database backup.
Verification
Check available space before installation and before upgrades. Include the expected database dump, media snapshot, and temporary restore footprint. Treat an insufficient-disk rehearsal finding as a blocker before mutation.
