Use Symlink with Network Volume

Use symlink (softlink) with network volume

A symbolic link is a special file in a file system that points to another file or directory. In this context, it should link to files on the network volume, effectively creating a shortcut that allows the instance to access persistent data from a different location.

You can locate the correct directory in network volume using the command: find / -type d -name "my_documents"

Ex:

find / -type d -name "ComfyUI"

To create a symbolic link, see the example below:

ln -s /network/lora.safetensors /workspace/ComfyUI/models/loras

Here:

  • ln -s creates a symbolic link.
  • /network/lora.safetensors is the source file.
  • /workspace/ComfyUI/models/loras is the target directory.
