I have a remote POWA server that reached disk limits. How can i move POWA and it's logs to another server?
I Installed POWA in the new server but is it enough to copy the powa database?

Hello,

The remote PoWA database is a standard database. You can either do a pg_dump / pg_restore or turn off postgres, move the data on a new server and start postgres again (for the latter all the data will be moved, it can be a problem if you have multiple databases). You'll have to reconfigure powa-collector and powa-web to connect to the new server if it's using a different IP address, but apart from that there shouldn't be any problem.
