I have a LAMP-like application running (firewall, web server, mysql server, two nas devices (for logs and monitoring)), but I'm struggling to put content on the web server (a WEB5 component).

I've created a user volume named 'content' for the www data , and I can see it mounted on the WEB5:

/dev/hda3 on /mnt/content type ext3 (ro)

According to the 3tera docs, I can scp or sftp data to the volume if I first mount it from the control shell; but in order to do that, I first have to stop the WEB5 component (or the whole app) .... correct so far?

Is there no other way to do this? I'll have web developers working on this server, and it'll be a real pain if we have to stop the server each time they want to upload a modified php script.

Should I be adding a NAS component to hold the www data volume? (I'm a bit vague on why some user volumes are placed on a NAS but others aren't), or maybe I should be mounting the www data volume rw then logging into the WEB5 to modify www data

Pete, did you find answers to your questions? (seems like no one replied to you; I want to make sure that you not only solved the problem for which you posted but also have clarity of the concepts)
Thanks,
