Move kubelet to another drive

[GurdipS5]

Hi All,
Have a k3s cluster of 3x control plane nodes and 3x worker nodes. I want to move the kubelet to store data on its own drive, how could I go about achieving this?

In general, I recommend just mounting another disk at the default path. Stop K3s, mount the partition in a temp location, move the data, then remount it at the default path. Same as you would do with any application data that you wanted to move to another disk.

Before I do this, is this process the same for a brand new cluster with no apps and with a cluster with apps on it?

Well you can probably skip the copying files bit if you don't have any files to copy? Just mount your partition over the path you want to replace.
