Describe the problem you are having

I have added and mounted my new drive to the frigate LXC. mounted the drive. I can see the drive and have configured my docker-compose.yml to point the media to this drive. Frigate is still showing ~20g main drive as storage. I can't figure out how to run docker compose on this LXC.

then your docker compose file is not doing anything as you don't have docker installed. You need to use the LXC to mount the recordings drive to /media/frigate/recordings in the LXC

This is more of a Proxmox question than a Frigate support issue. None of the maintainers use Proxmox, so maybe someone from the community can be of help.

I have the drive in the frigate Lxc but can't get frigate to send recordings to it

did you run docker compose up -d to apply the new docker config?

root@frigate:/opt/frigate# docker compose up -d
-bash: docker: command not found
This lxc was created via the tteck frigate script
