Please help to guide again. Why I cannot use the option “From Testing to Production”?

AFAIK, until you get the green tick, the repository hasn’t been synced, if your running out of space, did you set the system up per the SMT recommendations?

Hi
I would only use btrfs for the system and then a separate xfs partition for the database and another xfs partition for the packages to mirror.

If it’s anything like SuMA, then 50GB for the database (pgsql) and 50GB per SUSE product,
I have 100GB for / 100GB for /var/lib/pgsql and 500GB for product storage.

Hi
Unlikely since it will still be on btrfs, so get added to snapper snapshots which is why the likes of the database and package storage needs to be separate.
