Steps to create database on new partition when database already exists

[alucardbc]

Per the documentation I have created a new drive that I want to use for the database. However when I go to create a new database, it returns an error saying the database already exists and to use the recreate option. I go to recreate, however there is no option here for deploying the database to the new drive. Is there something I am missing or is this a bug?

I've tried to use appliance_console, but it complains that an existing database exists. bundle exec rake db:drop evm:db:reset etc... gives the same error. Appliance_console will go through the set up process and tell me that the database already exists. I just want to delete the existing database and recreate it again u…

Let me know if it works for you
