When I acess /srv folder i don’t see anything in the host
But inside docker container i am able to see metrics data in /srv
Then what directory of volume path will be mounted to EBS volume of ec2 instance?

Hello @Kotha_Sambashiva_Rao,
If you launched PMM from our AMI, then the 2nd EBS volume is mounted as /dev/sdb which is mounted inside the docker container. /srv on the host will certainly be empty as the data is stored within a docker volume. You should read up on some Docker 101 for Volumes and container mapping for more info.
The data inside /srv is all binary style data, stored in ClickHouse databases, Victoria Metrics format, etc. There is no user-viewable data inside here. To see the data, you need to load the URL of your PMM instance in your browser. Then you can navigate through all the dashboards.

Thnx for the reply @matthewb ,
In my case it was /dev/nvme0n1p1
now i found that ,
inside conatiner its like /dev/nvme0n1p1 /srv
on host its like this /dev/nvme0n1p1 /
So i should use /dev/nvme0n1p1 for mounting any ebs volume right ?

Since you installed PMM as a docker container, all the data stored for PMM will be located at /srv inside the container. You can bind-mount any path on the host to /srv when you launch the container.
